sorry just realized you're going to need to create an account at the CES site if you want to read the press releases, but it's well worth doing so don't hesitate. Ya don't get a lot of spam from them unless you want it

$5 is for the digital box. The programs broadcast in HD are nice, but I happily pay the $5 for the On Demand (my personal favorite) that comes with it.
Thanks for the links Tam!

I already have a decent audio set up, and now I'm looking to upgrade my television. I was looking at Samsung DLP's but they don't have anything smaller than 46". I'm looking for something around 36", with HDTV capabilities.
What do you suggest?

$5 over the digital box is the PVR box i was talking about. menu sucks but it's a full blown HD PVR built in.
