Plasma Televisions: What do you need from the cable service provider?
My friend just sunk god-knows-how-much into an Hitachi plasma TV. The guy is technologically illerate and hasn’t consulated his cable service provider, Charter, to ask what needs to be done in order to optimize the HD signal.
Does anybody here have some experience with HD plasma TVs? I noticed there’s a card-reader of sorts in the back of the TV and the manual indeed refers to it. If it was my television, I’d already have this behemoth conqured, but you have to know the “Neeboinic”…Thank you!

All you need is an external antenna to receive HDTV from what ever local stations in your area are broadcasting them over the air. Are you in a BIG City? You probably can get free CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, etc. etc. Don’t pay the cable companies for this if a $19 antenna will get them for free!!!
Call the cable company and get a HD box with HD service. He will get the local channels along with the cable ones that have HD in HD.
well i guess u need to call urs local cable operator to fix up the line and access the tv shows will b easy .considering the conditional or paid accessibilty get the tv run .
Get an HD cable box and have him purchase an HDMI cable if the tv has those inputs…
