DirecTV to Beam 1500 HDTV Channels

Holy Cannoli! According to this press release (via Gizmodo), by next year (NEXT YEAR!) DirecTV will have the necessary equipment circling the earth to offer more than 500 local channels in HDTV. And by 2007, they'll have the capacity for 1,000 HDTV locals and 150 HDTV National networks.

I hope they're offering a larger capacity HD Tivo by then! I'm gonna need it. ;-)

hey there, how are you?

this hdtv news is pretty exciting. i would love to get the full value out of my samsung DLP tv. I'm going to need a 10 Terabyte TiVo, though.
