Walt,
   I own an HDHR and it's been a great little box for the last couple
of years. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have.

   That said watch out for what's happening to us. We're on the cable
giant Comcast's network and they are quickly moving toward removing
nearly all Clear QAM from their transmissions meaning we will be left
with very little that the HDHR can tune. Some people report on the
Myth lists that they are down to little more than OTA and cable access
channels. It hasn't happened to me yet, but I think the writing is on
the wall. More Comcast people are moving toward the cheap DTAs and
controlling them to change channels, but that's SDA only. HD requires
a STB.

   What a mess!

   Anyway, you might be in Europe or Canada or someplace with better
consumer protection laws than the U.S. Just be aware of what you might
be up against, and if it doesn't matter then enjoy the HDHR because
it's a great little product.

Cheers,
Mark
