"HD Ready" vs. "HD Built-In"
HD Ready simply means that the display is incapable of accecpting a cable TV or broadcast signal and extracting HD content from it. That is the ONLY thing it means. In other words it does not have built in tuner so you'll need a "cable box" or "HD Antenna" to watch TV shows from cable and over the air in HD. In most cases cable providers have a specialized box anyway meaning even if you had a display with an "HD Tuner Built In" it wouldn't be used anyway.

sorry to say but for the price this tv sucks, 16ms is garbage response time, youll see a lot of ghosting when using this tv, especially for the xbox 360! I would go to here www.bestbuyplasma.com you can get that new samsung (26") for 870$

ok so by this i take it that the lower the ms are the better so maybe i should try to find something with like 8ms?

manxbox did you buy that tv? i was thinking about buying it.

@caveman55 no i didn't buy this tv but i was thinking about it but be for i did i came here to ask if it is any good before i did.

@Xombe
so would you say a tv with HD Built-In is better to buy?

I have to second the suggestion on the Soyo. Great monitor. Just got it Wednesday and it works great.

Here is the link to a site to get it cheaper

http://www.ecost.com...dpno~702584.asp

I would really check this site every day or two. The prices they have for this monitor fluctuate.
I picked mine up for 875 and then got the 50 dollar rebate on it.
