The Digital Present

It's coming .. one year from now.
The TV signal piped into your home will be digital, and you're going to have to be ready.

My guess is, if you're reading this blog (and thank you, by the way), you're already hip to the digital changeover .. if not, here are some simple facts:

The changeover is not an expensive one .. I know (firsthand) how tempting and intimidating it can be at the same time to cruise through a Best Buy or Circuit City and see all the cool thin, HD plasma screens that can cost thousands of dollars. Truth is, you don't have to spend a lot of money to upgrade your set .. today, we saw digital TV sets for $150. If you want more, it's there, but it's not necessary to take out a second mortgage to join the digital TV revolution.

I'll be blogging more about this, and what we all need to do to keep up. Just be assured, it doesn't take a huge amount of money. You may need a new set (or at least an adapter - for sale now, by the way), and a little tweaking of your cable or satellite systems.

We'll keep you posted, as the changeover gets closer.
