Awesome!
I just took delivery of this little last week...
It is a thing of beauty. I got it hooked up very easily and quickly and was instantly impressed.
Even DVDs (now non-interlaced) look great. Just seeing it on a larger screen is great. Even the surround sound sounds better!!
However, the real wow, came when I grabbed the internal antenna from the spare TV and plugged it in. Then I set the TV to scan for over the air broadcasts. After a few minutes it was done. The majority of all the local channels (CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, UPN) all came in beautifully. You just have to love digital broadcasts - you either get them or you don't - and I get them! I only live about 4 miles from the broadcast towers so the reception is pretty good. I think with a proper external antenna the signal strength will be improved and I will get PBS too. Then I get to cancel my satellite local channel subscription.
Tonight was the first real chance I have had to watch broadcast TV in HD. WOW. It was just 'House', but it looked fantastic, even if it was broadcast at only 720. Perfect picture quality
