World Cup 2006 completely in HD

The Disney family of networks scored a goal yesterday by announcing that all 64 World Cup 2006 matches will be in high-definition. Coverage will be spread out between ABC, ESPN-HD and ESPN2-HD. Each match will be broadcast in HD via twenty individual high-def cameras, so every angle will appear razor sharp. Mark your calendars from June 9th to July 9th, 2006 for the full tourney!

Thanks for the tip, Adam!

WOW I just subscribed to the feed today (after a mention on another Weblogs Inc blog, kept forgetting to but the link to the blog made it easy) and get this great piece of news!!

I guess I am going to have to save up to HD by June (oe maybe just come visit YOU for the month) or borrow your second HD set LOL

Wow indeed - I'm now officially hoping that I've got enough saved up to take the HDTV plunge before the World Cup rolls around. Time to live on bread and water for a couple months...
