Finally got HD


Well my wife and I finally took the plunge after having an HD ready display (A Sony 53" RPTV) for the last 4 years we bought a HD-PVR to get HD through our cable company.
I must say that HD looks fantastic Shaw now has 21 HD channels and soon more are going to be added. I know that sat has more but the quality is better with cable and we get all the magor HD networks and two 24hr movie channels. Both my wife and I couldent help but say WOW when we saw a baseball game on HD, It looked so real we were almost enticed to watch it (I say almost) as we are not big sports fans.
I cant wait for Lost to start and my wife wants to see ER to see how that looks.
All in all I'm happy with it and love the PVR features particularly the ability to instantly shift and pause playback of any show we are watching.
