When all channels in the US go digital (I believe in 2008 or 2009) there
will be no need to upgrade your TV's to HD if you have cable.


How do you figure that?

The same as today with digital provided by the cable company yet viewable
on an analog set because of the digital receiver/cable box provided by the
cable company. It may no be HD quality, but it is digital.


Ok. I thought you were intimating that somehow you would get HD on a non-HD
set.
With digital you either get the channel or you don't. Analog will come in
although it may be weak, snowy or jittery.
