WOW!!

I finally got my HD box for my TV and all I can say is WOW. I've had my HD TV for about 2 years now, but I just finally called up the cable company and said that I wanted to upgrade my digital cable to HD digital cable. I have been missing out on so much.

The Stanley Cup playoffs are on ESPN right now, and I just flipped from the regualr non-HD ESPN to the HD ESPN and there is just no comparison. Not only is the picture, cleaner, clearer, crisper and brighter, but the sound is also soo much better.

If you do not have HD yet, you are missing out on an amazing thing. It is worth it, only $5 more a month. Deffinetly worth it.

Come on now, let me hear your love for the High Def. I know I'm not the only HD Nerd here.

Pleasant viewing.

I have had HD for about a year and I love it however I haven't had as much time to watch it as I would like to. My big complaint though is the lack of programming that utilizes HD. There isn't a whole lot out there. And there needs to be more channels on board IMO.

Yeah there does seem to be a lack of programming right now. I am just happy that I can now watch all sporting events in HD. I think that I have 11 HD channels. 2 of them broadcast constant HD content. I would like to have HDNet, but otherwise I am happy with CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, ESPN, HBO and the others. It is just a matter of time before more and more programming is broadcast in High Def.

I'm kind of surprised that there aren't more people with HD here. Oh well.

I have had HDTV for about 1.5 years now and its amazing. Watching the NHL playoffs on a Mitsubishi 65" Widescreen Diamond Vision TV is simply amazing. Better then being there.

Mitsubishi has some good sets.HD is great but the lack of programming sucks.I repair T.V.'s and love the HD.Most people's houses I go to think they can get HD through the component outputs of their DVD player.Not true.It is a higher quality picture though.They are a little over priced right now but they will come down in price in the future.

Yeah I have a Mitsu GoldPlus 57" widescreen and I love mine. I was debating between the Mitsu or the Hitachi when I bought mine but I went with the Mitsu and I am pleased.

Yeah, you can actually see the puck and the writing on the puck as well. I don't really like watching hockey on tv, but it really isn't too bad with the HD. It is much more like you are there in the arena watching the game in person.
