Free HDTV airs tonight!

Ok. The dancing part of the commercial is just laaamee..

Most of the people living [Approx. 2 million] in the areas supported by TVB and aTV's broadcast signal will be switching to high-definition TV tonight at 7 PM. Almost all of Kowloon, part of the New Territories and Hong Kong Island will be able to enjoy the free HDTV channels. This launch has aiming for a advance in Hong Kong's technology as well as crystal-clear, with no "ghost” and “snow” effects [which most TVs suffer from] free viewing. Another purpose is to enhance popularity of next year's Beijing Olympics 2008 and Hong Kong's own equestrian events. The cons of HDTV are quite obvious; most of the TVs in Hong Kong are not yet HD-Ready/Full-HD so many people would be buying new ones and throwing their old TVs out instead of bothering to recycle them. Another negative side is that the decoders cost up to HK$2000 which is a bit pricy, though you can get a HDTV USB plug in a Computer Centre for around HK$600 which recieves low quality signals.
