Ok, well I've been a HT nut for a while but I am an amature when it comes to DirectTV.

Here's what I am basically looking for. Right now I have an HDTV set, but I want to wait for some of the new Samsung, Zenith and Panasonic HDTV boxes to come out before I get one of those, so I am just looking for a basic system for two TV's. I do have a ReplayTV, so I would like a system with a low speed data port for that. What models would you guys recommend and what/where is the best deal right now.

Secondly, may be you can tell me if this exists. When I do get the HDTV DirecTV box, I need it to have:
1. Native display of 480p, 720p and 1080i
2. Have a low speed data port for ReplayTV
3. OTA capabilites for local HDTV
Does such a box exist, or will I need to have two boxes for the mainTV, one with DirectTV HDTV and another non-HDTV box connected to the replay?

Hope that all makes sense. Thanks so much.
