We already learned that some 28-percent of US households were rocking at least one HDTV back in March, but now the Consumer Electronics Association has come forward with new figures showing that over half of American abodes are home to a digital television. According to revamped CEA projections, around 32 million DTV units will ship out next year, with 79-percent of those being HD sets. ‘Course, the downside of this is that a good chunk of America still isn’t prepared for the DTV cutover in 2009, but thanks to all the advertising that will likely be taking place over the next year and change, we’d say they’ve got plenty of time to get on board.
