HD Ready, actually, not Full HD. Not a brilliant telly, to be honest, cheapo brand.

Does the job, though.

Football and cricket in HD are brilliant. One thing to consider on Sky Sports HD, though, is that most of the stuff on the HD channels, if it isn't live, it isn't HD - they broadcast loads of standard def programmes on the HD channels.

David Attenboroughs on BBC HD are *amazing*. The new one this week, Life, was astounding in HD.
