got it this afternoon

- the HD channels are really clear and crisp
- toggled between 720p and 1080i. no noticeable difference. prolly my eyes can't tell the difference :S
- the quality for SD channels is same as before
- did not do rewiring. using existing wires
- the decoder works so much faster. eg, the response after punching the channel number, info, etc
- BUT the duration for punching the channel number is so short. similar to last time where people complain about not having enough time to punch in the 3 digits

what?...another one?
seem like installation start today

some pics would be better

w00t nice pics... but yeah they follow many broadcasters that wants to broadcast in SD as well, so its very convenient for them to just crop it for SD channels... I'm sure you guys have seen ABC and CW, same idea
