I understand Astro is having a meeting with all their retailers on their upcoming plans tomorrow in KL. Seems HD is one of the topic.

Hope to find out from the retailers soon.

side news from retailer  tongue.gif

ASTRO HD will be having around 5 HD channels with resolution 1080i..
They included National Geo and HBO..

Thus, only viewer who take those packages can install the HD decoder from ASTRO..
The freq required for HD signal is very high.. Those using Main disc in apartments cannot use the HD service as it need special bigger disc..And those with bad quality wall conceal coaxial cable (usually developer wanna save cost then use china mada wire) also will having problem to use it..
*
So what kind of disc and cables will be required?
