I love watching OTA HD especially in widescreen 16:9. NFL games are especially crisp as are the PBS stations. I'm using an outboard Samsung HD tuner that is about a year old.

As for the Motorola HD cable box (for Comcast), there might be newer units out that perform better. The one I had was just introduced to the Denver market about a year ago and it was pretty bad.

I was looking at the Samsung LCD TV's just the other night at CircusCity. Direct view LCD would be my prefered technology mainly bacause the plasma sets all buzz here at my altitude. Also with LCD you don't have to worry about 'burn in' on the screen if you leave a static image up there and they draw a lot less power than the plasma sets.

Have fun!
