first of all the dish network hdtv feeds are not always native hdtv. that is a must in order to be happy with this investment.you need to understand hdtv is at this point top of the food chain, this is a luxury item that manufactures are trying to make you believe that the common person can easily do.false. i sold full blown hd sets for the last four years at a custom home theater store.don't think for a minute you can get even close acurate advise at circuit city,best buy oor any other non specialized store please consult a professional. it can be done easily if you have the budget. feel free to email i can sell you product also
My dad's looking for a HDTV big screen for our new house. He's working with a 52" opening (width), 53" and 56" TV's fit. He will probably go with Dish Networks for the service. He's seeing these TV's that say things like "1080i", "480p", "720p", what does this mean? What's the difference? Can anyone recommend a good site to learn about this stuff? Recommendations for a good TV would be helpful too. He's looking at a Panasonic 56" they carry at CostCo ($1,100 cheaper than the same one at Fry's! =P)
I know it's way off topic, but I figured you bimmer drivers gotta know something about this stuff! =)
Thanks a bunch.
