Bill, don't be too surprised if they end up watching it on their phones or tablets while messaging a number of their friends at the same time.
Brave new world indeed...

Hi Steve,

They ended up watching it as a family. They called me right after they had watched it. They were disappointed that there weren't any photos. I told them to check tomorrow - NASA should be posting some photos as they get them.

I should have said that you don't need to find NASA TV on your cable channels - just go to NASA TV online. They stream three channels, all in excellent quality.

There's a very interesting article that goes into why it takes so long to get the data:

Talking to Pluto is Hard
