The standard def. picture isn't fantastic but its still an improvement on the old 20" CRT. The DVD picture over the component input is excellent (480p). I can only imagine what the HD signal would look like.

Yesterday I picked up a cheap indoor amplified antenna from Fry's to see if I could pull in some OTA HD signals. It worked better than I expected and the results were stunning.

I could not believe how well the local newscast on ABC, the evening NFL game on NBC and the Clipper game on channel 5.1 looked. I was amazed at how good of a picture this Westinghouse produced. The broadcasts were either 720p or 1080i, were displayed in widescreen format, and were crystal clear, all with the built in tuner. I highly recommend this Westinghouse 32" to anyone.

i have 3 more month till my contract ends then i will switch it to Dishnetwork... 31 HD channels include 1 HBO HD Movie channel.... i cant wait...

Contract? You may be one of the only people in the country with a contract for cable. I mean, one of their main marketing points is no contracts.

BTW, I hate how the same cable company can be so different depending on where you live. Example, we have TW here and they are pretty good, and price-wise, for what I get, they beat Dish and DirecTV hands down.

Also, before you switch, be advised that cable offers the best HD picture as of right now. Do a search in here, Siggy posted a ton of info explaining the reasons behind this...
