I haven't had my head in the sand, either. And I don't get my television

Your cable company is in as big a hurry to turn off analog as the
networks. Certainly they will be happy to rent you a box to output
NTSC but your "cable ready" stuff won't be "ready".
I understand Comcast has already done this in some places.

Yeah, maybe. The "sky is falling" crowd wears on me sometimes. So far I
haven't heard a peep from my cable company telling me they're about to
cut my luddite ass off. Why would they want to alienate their customer
base any more than they already do?
