Re: 'Does HD Matter Yet?'

lack of HD programing is why HD doesnt really matter yet. that said its still no reason not to buy an HDTV, just make sure it has HDMI and HDCP for when the new Policeware DVDs come out.

Pretty much every prime time show is in HD now, so there's lots of programming. Discovery Chanel HD, 100% HD programming. PBS HD. Pretty much 80% or more of what I watch is available in HD.

I bought an HDTV about a month ago. I rushed out and got the SA 8300HD from my cable co. (brighthouse) and subscribed to all the HD content they offer. Having spent some time with it after being on the fence for so long I have to say it is a cool thing however not nearly enough content to justify the price. I dont watch network TV so that dosent count to me. Discovery HD and INHD and HDMAX are the best channels out there right now. I calibrated my TV so it looks really good however I would not recommend it to anyone that is on the fence right now. I mainly got mine for games, DVDs, and to replace a 20 year old broken TV.

That's more or less due to Brighthouse. I switched to Dish which has more HD content for less money. Then to that you can add the OTA HD which blows away the cable and Sat compressed content.

I wish I could get DISH or DIRECTV. However living in a condo I'm stuck with cable.

Want to spend a little more, and get a great investment out of that HDTV ?...

Buy an Clean Power Device from »www.richardgrayspowercompany.com

it takes all that juice from that power transformer thats on the pole in your neighborhood and brings it all to you power outlet,
if you call up the company, they would better explain it to you, and offer advice

and if you want to take it futher, upgrade your power cables in the house and run dedicated A.C. circuits runs from the power outlet (where the HDTV is) to the power breaker box
