Hi,
Last fall I bought a Panny 47wx42 - I love it. Awesome picture, great price etc. I really cant complain about this set. However, I did buy this with the full knowledge that it didnt have a DVI input. I always kind of assumed that somebody would come out with an aftermarket converter or something that would let people without DVI connectors to watch programming without being down converted.
Anyway I havent been around the forums since last fall, and havent really read any of the magazines either. So my question is this - has anything happened in the past 6 months or so with regards to DVI/copy protection for HDTV? Have any laws changed that will make DVI required to watch programming at highest resolution? And does anyone know if Panasonic has changed its mind and will provide a solution for non DVI sets like mine? (I do know that the new Panasonic RPTVs have DVI now...)
Thanks,
Mike
