Yesterday I ordered my first HDTV. I’m a bit nervous that I’ll need additional equipment to get this thing to work but according to the photos it has all the right low-tech connectors in the back to work with my current system. It’s going to arrive while I’m at CIL so I’m sure that for the first time I’ll be a little itchy to leave conference so I can get home and play with my new toy.

I just got my first one too- really similar- 37″ 720p. I don’t have cable, so I’m basically using it as a big computer monitor and for my video game systems (and, of course, my beloved modded xbox). It’s working great!
