I know there has been plenty of warning - I just hate spending money for things like a new tv, when the one I have works fine. I only need one TV.

I don't do cable, or I would never turn the tv off

But some friends of my parents were just visiting my parents in Florda - and my mom sent a converter box that she couldn't get to work at her house back with them, so I'm going over tonight to get it. We'll see if I can get it to work here. If not, I guess I'll be making a different decision.

Don't forget that you have to plug an antenna into the box still! A lot of people didn't know that and they couldn't figure out why no signals came in. We may get a rooftop antenna just to get in even more channels, if they are worth getting anyway.
