All of the major networks, except FOX, broadcast significant portions of their primetime schedules in HD.

I strongly disagree, almost NONE of the programming on NBC/CBS/ABC is 1080i, its all old 480 stuff even the VAST majority of new shows. Only PBS actually has a HDTV channel that broadcasts 1080i programming. Having an HDTV tuner at this point is kind of a joke. Sure the networks broadcast an HDTV signal, but 99% of what they broadcast, prime time or otherwise, is still 480 line low resolution material, so having it on HDTV doesnt help any.
