Hey everybody! I just wanted to pass on the news that the digital transition has been delayed until June 12th, 2009. The original date for the transition was February 14th, 2009 but the government, after much debate and arguing, decided that it was best to delay it.
I for one have mixed feelings about it. The reason for the delay was to give more people a chance to prepare for the transition which I think is a good idea but regardless there will be millions that were procrastinating til February 14th that will now just wait until June 12th to do anything. People have the choice of getting a TV converter box or a digital television. If you are interested in a digital television check out the top 10 TVs from Amazon and our review of the top Samsung TV.
On the other hand it is a good idea because it gives the NTIA more time to sort out the problems they are having with the coupon program and get people they coupons they need in order to get their converter box at a discounted price.
If you still need a couple I suggest you apply for it here and that you hurry because funds are limited and dwindling.
