HDTV

You generally will need an HDTV tuner no matter what.

As far as I know, HDTV signals are picked up just like any other air signal. But if you're paying that kind of cash for HDTV, I'd recommend going with digital cable or a satellite. I know some cable companies will rent you out a HDTV box (or possibly give you a digital cable box with one built-in). There are some sat receivers that pick up the signal as well.

I'm not getting it until everything becomes standardized and they start building it into the TVs. Not worth the hassle.
