I think the Blu-Ray broken promise train has just taken off with lots of stops coming over the years to come.]]>Apr 24th 2008 11:36AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/Apr 27th 2008 7:18PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/
All joking aside, a lot of America doesn't have the options that the coasts have.]]>Apr 24th 2008 12:48PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/
How's that "just plug it in and have it work" Media Center trating you?
You'll have CableCard up and running about the same time as the Hauppauge HD-PVR comes out ;) I Enjoy the blog btw.

Though I guess it's not that big of a deal...but still...*sigh*]]>Apr 24th 2008 9:22PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/
What do you think of that Samsung LCD? I was at the Circuit City in Midtown Manhattan yesterday and they were showing Transformers on HD DVD on a 50" (I think it was 50") Samsung 6 Series LCD. There was a large crowd just staring at the screen-- it looked amazing.

I asked if it was plasma and the salesperson said it was the new 6 Series and it was 120HZ, which is why it looked like plasma. Is this 120Hz BS or is it for real? I thought it might be their set up. They had Spider Man on BR playing as well and it wasn't nearly as impressive.

I know they do the Amazon thing, but it's not the same. If Tivo Series 4 had Tru2Way, Netflix watch now and a built-in blu-ray player, I'd only have one box under my tv.

If they changed the form factor so it stood vertical and mounted to the back of the tv, then I wouldn't have any boxes under it at all.]]>Apr 25th 2008 1:41PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/
Concerning the the comment about the cable companies that you hadn't heard of from the chart that Eric posted, it seems whoever made the chart just went and used the top 10 cable companies in the US based on subscribers.
http://www.ncta.com/Statistic/Statistic/Top25MSOs.aspx

Their subscriber totals for up to Sept. 07 is 57,722,100
NCTA says there's about 65,100,000 (http://www.ncta.com/Statistic/Statistic/IndustryStatistics.aspx) coming out to about 88.7% of all US cable subscribers.]]>Apr 27th 2008 1:00AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/23/engadget-hd-podcast-082-04-23-2008/Apr 27th 2008 7:20PM
