SMART TRAVELS -IN EUROPE WITH RUDY MAXA

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Rudolfo LaMaestra's Digital Television (DTV)

Review of a Year of Unprecedented Growth Updated at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2004.
(One hundred pages)

Dear Readers,

The highly respected HDTV advocate and author, Rodolfo La Maestra, has made a deal for us that cannot be beat anywhere else.

As many of you know Rodolfo has been a powerful influence in aiding the public in their comprehension and appreciation of HDTV. Last year he undertook a massive report covering the Consumer Electronics Show complete with all of the new products introduced at that time and shortly thereafter. The product listings were complete with their technical attributes, insightful comments by exhibitors he interviewed, and the prices for most of iteme listed.


This year Rodolfo has gone even further. Not only are all of the presently available HDTV-related products and those introduced at the CES for release lster this year are listed (with complete technical comparative analysis and prices) but you will also find those items released at other events throughout 2003, such as at the CEDIA show. This fully illustrated report is complete with photos of the products you will soon be shopping for as well as providing an overview of where things stand and are going.

The contents of the 100 page report includes the following:

-Brief Highlights of CES 2004

-Update on the DTV Deployment
- FCC plan for OTA and Cable
|-Brief Summary of the DTV Plan
-Market Penetration of DTV
-HD Programming Available
- A Year of Announcements
-The FCC Implementation of the OTA Tuner Mandate and the Cable Agreement
-HDTV Integrated Tuners

-Upgrade Capabilities of Cable Tuner/s (and Integrated HDTVs)

-Acronyms

Rodolfo wants to further the HDTV Magazine and said to me, "Dale, use my report as a premium and increase your sales to get HDTV Magazine further out front were it belongs."

The report was produced with you in mind. It has the meticulous detail you would expect from a professional engineer, which Rodolfo is. He is also a communicator and a long-standing advocate of HDTV. You will quickly sense his dedication as he makes all of the products, services, acronyms, and market dynamics associated with HDTV completely understandable to you in detail.

Neither Rodolfo nor I could put a price tag on this report. To those who value their time it has to be priceless. The HDTV investment is not a trivial one. HDTV is only about quality and that varies. Research on your part is absolutely unavoidable if you are to avoid a disappointment. That disappointment could be very costly. But with this comprehensive report you can stop thumbing through endless brochures with their confounding buzz words or swinging from one flashy web site to another in a vain attempt to figure out what is best for you and your family. When the salesman you are talking to leaps into fantasy and obscures fact you can pull out the report and provide a memorable lesson. (Indeed, any salesman will want the report from you. Please tell them how you got it.)

So, how do we price such a valuable contribution? Rather than fumble with that question I took our annual subscription price of $35 and reduced it to zero for those ordering the report for $35. Look at it as if you get an annual subscription to HDTV Magazine free with the report or the report is free with your annual subscription. Either view is absolutely right.

For those regular member I will extend your subscription by one year with your order of the report. Alternatively, you can give the "free" subscription to a friend or relative by just adding their email address on the order form. (I would suggest you send a select portion of the report to that friend or relative as a gesture of good will and friendship.)

For you with a "lifetime" charter membership status this is a wonderful opportunity to spur us along with your support while at the same time rounding out your HDTV reference library.

It is easy to order this report. It is easy to download it to your hard drive immediately upon the clearing of payment.

Please go to our familiar ordering page now:


Rudolfo LaMaestra's Digital Television (DTV)

Upon submitting our standard ordering form you will receive an email from me with the web address where you may download the complete report in either PDF or MS Word files. We will also update your present status as I have indicated above.

It's a great value. Your order will not only give you an expert status on HDTV but will do as Rodolfo has wanted--help HDTV Magazine reach a new level of operation. I hope we all share in this vision forward.

Sincerely,
Dale Cripps, Publisher
HDTV Magazine
