Not true at all.
As others said, you will need a converter box after February 2009. They will cost less than US$100, and the coupons will take $40 off the first two boxes you buy.
You can also already buy used digital-TV tuners on Ebay for less than $75.
When you get your tuner, you will also find a bunch of extra, free TV channels like 24-hour local weather and children's programming, if you live in a bigger metropolitan area.
