[QUOTE="kay, post: 20793, member: 2"] It must have at least a couple of HDMI 1.3 ports (that in itself guarantees HD-readiness), and resolution appropriate for the screen size and viewing distance. What's appropriate resolution? For a 40" screen at a distance of 4m, 720p is enough. 100" projector at the same distance, or a 60" TV at half the distance may be better off with 1080p. Budget constraints also need to be taken into account :) Not sure what the situation in SA is with regards to digital broadcasts. All the TVs currently sold only have analogue tuners. Apparently the new HD PVR from DStv will have HDMI. If there is a mass switch-over to something like DVB-T, there will probably be external TV tuners sold with an appropriate connection (again - probably HDMI). Basically all plasmas and LCDs sold now fit the above requirements. [/QUOTE]
