I'm suprised digital feed for television isn't on the list. Frankly, I find it absolutely annoying that I should have to spend upwards to a hundred dollars a month to have my cable network and digital cable television. What normal person can afford that? I make pretty good money given my occupation and there is just no way. The price will never, ever go down either even when owning a hi-def tv is an absolute and not an option.

My wife's brother purchased a 42 inch hi-def tv, and invited me over to watch some football. Man was I impressed, I never knew clarity till I layed eyes on that TV. By the way my wife's best friend bought us a 26 inch LCD HD ready TV/Monitor. Its the first step to getting the 42 I want.

Make sure you get a 1080p TV DA. I've been keeping my eyes on the Sony 40" XBR HD 1080P LCD, just waiting for the price to drop. I think Steel bought one a while back, a 46" I think.

I love my 1080p Sharp Acquos 37". Too bad, and this was my original point before DA hijacked the thread, that Comcast charges an arm and leg for digital cable signal...frick'n ridiculous. What do they the normal man makes anyway. Blah. I wish there was a way to work around their price gouging without tacking a dish onto the side of my house.
