I just watched the end of the Sunday Night Football game via over-the-air NBC HD with my rabbit ear antenna just to check the quality of my new tv and I was impressed. And I don't even care about football! I recently purchased a Sharp Aquos 52" LCD HDTV at Brandsmart here in South Florida. I have DirecTV service but the brand new receiver & DVR their installer brought me yesterday was defective so I have to wait to get a replacement!Comment

Who ever spends $19,999.99 on a TV needs to be shot.
I've been watching Legend of the Seeker and it has some pretty cool parts that are completely made for the HD viewers. In the pilot they had an arrow fly over the girl's head and towards the TV. It was pretty freaking amazing.
I love my HDTVComment

To tell you the truth, I think Planet Earth was just beautifully shot. I have an HDTV but I don't have HD service, and Planet Earth Looks simply amazing on it. They did a wonderful job with that series.Vacares - Web Hosting, Domains, O365, Security & More - Paxum and BTC Accepted

I think LCD had caught up to CRT in numbers but just like the old 33s I think CRT has a certian something that can't be caught by a measuring device.

Its the equipment they use. Amazing quality. I loved the prog where they capture the great white breaching to get the seal... They improvised a 100 grand camera with some duct tape and a dorbell so as not to waste precious disk space filming unnecessrily

I bought a 46 inch Toshiba Regza tv.. Haven't gotten to test 1080p yet, but I did play games at 1080i. If my xbox 360 had an hdmi plug I would have been able to do 1080p, but I'm stuck with component video cables and no matter what I do it won't do 1080p. Oddly enough, my brother gets 1080p using component video on his xbox 360. What I really want to test is movies at 1080p, but with component video cables it makes regular dvds 480p. It won't upscale it to 1080i or p. hdmi would though.ICQ: 16544251 - Skype: gator37 @ eastlink.ca - email: yngwie @ isys.caComment

Yeah, I got the Planet Earth series this Christmas cause I put it on my wish list, and I'm glad I did.
It's truly amazing at 1080p! I've watched a few episodes over and over again... including the episode where the mountain cougar thing chases the goat down the side of the mountain. It's insane how fast they could go straight up and down a rock!Comment

jim interestingly enough that hdtv signal you got over the air is higher quality than the one you will get via cable, you probably wont tell the diff though. and of course cable is less affected by interferance.

It's funny you say that... I talked the wife into a plasma and even after watching some movies, she still felt that it wasn't all that people made it out to be, it just wasn't worth the money to get it.
THEN... we went to visit her family, who still have regular old boob tubes around the house and she sat down to watch a movie....
"omg! This looks terrible! Did we really watch movies like this?"
She may not have seen the plus in moving up to HD, but she can certainly see the negative in going back!

I just bought a 50" Plasma and the screen is pretty reflective during the day but I watch it mostly at night so it didn't matter to me.
What did matter was the deeper blacks than an LCD and no motion blur like you might find in an LCD. I think there is plenty to compare between Plasma and LCD and viewing habits are important to consider.
Haven't seen Planet Earth yet as I'm still looking for a Blu-Ray player but it will be the first disc I buy

*looks at 2 42" 1080p's used as dual view monitors*
*looks at 50" 720p used as a TV*
Yeah, I'm all set with HD.
although 1080p is SO overrated in terms of games and movies.
Almost none games run at 1080p (they're upscaled) and movies look almost identical - be it 720p or 1080p. My PS3 upscales everything to 720p -- even tube porn via Tversity.Comment

Haven't got a Blu-Ray player yet as it's low on my priority list at the moment.
I still won't get a PS3 as I already have a 360 so I don't need a game console,
They STILL cost $399 while many stand alone players of equal quality on the Blu-Ray side
are selling for under $250 and Their price continues to drop. Lastly the PS3 won't work with
a universal remote unless I buy an extra gadget for the PS3 which adds more to the PS3 costs.
In the beginning of Blu-Ray the PS3 was hands down the best deal. Now, not so much

So true. Those who are lucky enough to live in a metropolitan area that can pick up Over the air HD signals should try it out. OTA signals are pumped out full strength.. much more bitrate than the choked signals pushed down cable/satellite services.
Sunday Night Football on NBC, SuperBowl.. all the "free" telecasts, those are the primetime OTA signals I miss watching.Comment

Quite amazing actually... 5 years of continuous filming allowed them to capture events in nature which no one has ever seen, much less filmed before.
It's even worth watching even if you had a crummy tv to see it on... it's that well done.Comment
