I get in Toronto, Canada: CBS - 1080i ABC - 720p converted to 1080i PBS - 1080i NBC - 1080i FOX - 480P converted to 1080i plus a demo channel and a HDNHL channel. My cable company is Rogers and the digital box is about $6.60 US extra over the cost of the regular digital box and...

Today was the first time I have been able to watch a sporting event in HDTV that is also being broadcast on regular TV. (The previous was a hockey game that was only on a HDTV channel). Unfortunately, the Wow was not for the Super Bowl. It was for the Laker's game from NBC (1080i) that...

Mike, I did the same math as you did and went with the Sony KP61HS30. When I play HDTV it gives a picture about the same size as a 57 inch widescreen TV. However, since 90% of what I watch is still 4:3, I get the extra size for that format. In a few more years, 16:9 programming will become...

I would recommend the Sony KP-61HS30 which is a 61 inch Projection TV. It is 4:3 aspect ratio but also runs as a 56 inch widescreen TV with all 1080 lines of resolution in the HDTV area. It lists for $3100. I know you asked for widescreen but you didn't say how much regular TV you watch. I...

I now have two sources that need to go into one input on my Sony TV. Only input 5 does the vertical 16:9 squeeze that I need for both my DVD player and my Rogers HDTV feed. I am not interested in getting a new receiver to do the switching. A simple 2-input to 1-output component switch box is all...
