A few months ago someone here speculated that Dave Letterman's program
would be HDTV in the fall.

Now that we're closer in, anyone have info that would confirm (or
rebutt) that?

As they say out this way, "Muchas Gracias."

Googling letterman+hdtv found:

http://www.arthistoryclub.com/art_ [...] _Letterman

http://www.milwaukeehdtv.org/forum [...] -1224.html

http://www.broadcastingcable.com/a [...] erral=supp

None of these are definite confirmation - apparently they all could have the same source -
a verbal announcement last January at an affiliates meeting.

I couldn't find anything on the CBS site.

Tune in next month to see. Maybe he'll do something like he did when they switched to MTS
(TV stereo) sound many years ago and flip a switch on stage.

The latest at the HDTV programming forum at avsforum.com is Letterman
will be going HD on August 29. They will be completing the upgrade of
all the equipment during the August break. However, the date may slip if
they run into technical problems.

HD should make Letterman allot more fun to watch. Too bad I can no
longer stay up late enough to see it. What I need is an affordable
HDTV recording device, but I don't think any exist as yet. Does it?

Try this:

as I understand it.

If you already have a PC near the TV, any of the PCI cards will do the
job, but I like the MIT MDP-130 for around $250.

If you don't have a PC near the TV, but do have a PC you can use to record
HD, then you can use Roku Photobridge to play back the recordings:
http://www.rokulabs.com/products/photobridge/index.php

It can also play music (MP3, AAC, and quite a few more formats) and show
pictures in HD.
