I mean, really dude, sorry to troll/flame on you, but...

The transition to HD is already done, anyone w/ antenna and tuner can use it NOW... so it's not like this is delaying anyone from utilizing it or causing ANYBODY any sort of incovenience. At all. So what is so bad about waiting a little longer for those procrastinators when it impacts no one else?

Most of us on cable/satellite (or alternative), which makes is absolutely moot anyway.

The only thing this changes is the actual cut off of the analog signals.
Lets also remind ourselves: Government mandated switch to new tech... rarely done AND only being done because the gov't can now auction those unused bans. If the FCC didn't figure out a way to make money off this, no one would have ever cared or mandated it. So the nice $40 coupons they will send to anybody? Yeah, they are going to make ALL that back and then some. LIke all else our gov't does... it's never really about quality or good will, just about how much money we can make off it.
