Yup, the TV channels on the T90 will be useless. They're doing it to get 
money, someone didn't have enough, so they thought, so they decided, why not 
make people spend more money and go digital.  Yes, I do believe they only 
did it so someone could make money, I fully believe that. As for other 
countries, I'd have no idea. I thought a couple did go digital already but 
don't hold me to that.
