What About The Analog Devices?

© Steve Rhodes

One of the things I'm personally confused about with this HDTV transition is how we're going to hook up all those old devices that only speak composite. You know, things like my VCR, my Wii, my Nokia phones with TV out, and who knows what else.

Maybe HDTVs have several built-in composite ports on the back. At least the one I got a an up-close and personal look at had all kinds of ports on the back, though I can't recall if any were composite or if they were just component ports. Even if you can get them connected, how are they going to look, really? Probably like crap.

So I ask the readers, what about all the old analog devices? Does a new HDTV really mean I've got to buy a whole bunch of other things? Am I the only one who thinks this is crazy and a waste of money?
