Everything you say is correct. The problem is not only does COX make that claim "over the air", but except for PBS, all other HDTV offerings are only available through subscription (HBO(1 channel), STARZ(same thing) etc. And, just to get their HDTV box, the charge is an additional $10 a month. And, there are NO local stations available in HD through COX as of this writing. Altogether, there are nine HD channels available, and most of them are already premiums.
The only thing I find objectionable about satellite is the need for a separate box for each and every set at $5.00 per month per box. It doesn't seem like a great technological leap to overcome this shortcoming.
I think it is kind of funny and wonder how long before the public catches on..
One can only hope....
