Some of you may be aware that starting in Feb. in the US you will need a digital converter to watch any/all TV. The US government is giving out coupons (2 @ $40) on a first come first serve basis.

Here is the # to get yours

I was hoping somebody would start a thread about this. I have a lot of questions on what is really going on. I'll watch for the 'pearls of Pixies' to drop.
