TiVos are pretty cheap these days... Yeah, yeah, monthly fee, blah blah blah. Just get the lifetime subscription. Trust me, it's worth it.

I haven't seen a HD Tivo that wasn't DirectTV. Am I missing something. I need a box with a cable input and antenna input and component outs.

You're correct Tivo is only HD for Directv. But you can get an HD DVR from comcast, no OTA though.

Sony has a similar box to the LG. About $1k though.

Sony DHG-HDD250 or 500 models are $600 and $800. They don't get good reviews for fringe areas, but I might end up trying one of them.

Yes, there are stand alone TiVo boxes. Go to http://www.tivo.com for more info. You can get one for probably $100 right now, plus subscription fees. I have a standalone box, basic cable. There's only one tuner (OTA or cable), but it works quite nicely.


Oops, missed the HDTV thing. nevermind...
