Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
Your information on ATSC tuner requirements is outdated. The FCC has changed the rules. The new rules which can be obtained from the FCC website www.fcc.gov are contained in Report and Order 05-190. Digital television Receivers 25 inches and above manufactured for sale in the United States require digital (ATSC) tuners as of March 1, 2006. Receivers up to 25 inches (the 13 inch rule has been dropped) require digital tuners as do receivers without associated display by March 1, 2007. Cell phones, pdas, monitors without independant receiver capabilities etc, are exempt from the regulation UNLESS they have terrestrial (over the air) digital telvision capability in which case the fall unter the digital television regulations. You are correct on the analog shutoff, which is Feb. 17, 2009.
