DTV Transition Delay, Almost…
Hot off the Reuters wire, the Senate passed a bill this afternoon (1-26-09) to delay the the transition to DTV until June 12th, 2009.
Earlier in January, President Barack Obama’s presidential transition team sent a letter to Congress asking for an extension because they felt that many Americans would not be ready by the originally scheduled February 17th, 2009 transition date.
Some news agencies are reporting that the transition delay has been appoved, but the measure will still need to clear House Representatives (could be approved by the end of this week) before the delay becomes official.
