CEA Hosts HDTV Updates
Arlington, VA--The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) will conduct high definition television (HDTV) update meetings in five markets this fall to bring retailers, broadcasters, and cable representatives up-to-date on the state of the HDTV transition. According to the CEA, the meetings are intended to provide a national perspective of where the transition is heading and give local parties an opportunity to discuss ways of working together to achieve greater consumer awareness of HDTV.

The five markets, selected based on a strong retail HDTV presence as well as the breadth of digital television (DTV) broadcasters, are as follows: Philadelphia (September 18), Washington, D.C. (September 19), Boston (September 24), San Francisco (October 16) and Los Angeles (October 17). The breakfast presentations will be hosted by Jim Barry, CEA media spokesperson, and are free of charge. Topics to be covered include HDTV sales results and projections and market research data compiled by CEA.
