‘Bout time. I guess this goes to show how we yanks are still ahead of our dark-ages ancestors. Hmm, I guess that goes without saying.

Dear boy, we are much too busy with ruling the world, sipping pimms on a sunny afternoon, beating the Aussies at cricket and *gasp* making love with pretty ladies to have been over fussed about HDTV. We will let you chaps sort it out and then drop in at the last moment, that way we only get the good stuff.
Toodle pip!
