I just picked up a basic HDTV tuner from Samsung. It has a DVI output which mates up nicely with the DVI input on my Sony 16:9 XBR TV. I have a partially assembled $20 RadioShack UHF yagi antenna laying flat on the glass dining room table pointed toward Denver. The coax cable is running across the floor, up over the sofa, and to the back of the Samsung tuner. PBS is especially impressive and Jay Leno in HDTV is very sharp too. I'm getting only 4 channels at this point but I should get a couple more once I place the antenna outside on a 10-foot pole. The HDTV picture is truly incredible... better than any DVD I own!
