Should You Buy Your HDTV Online Or Offline?
After you have done your research and decided on the HDTV model that you think will best fit your needs and wants, it's time to decide where to actually make the purchase. In times past, you really didn't have much of a choice, and the local electronics retailer is probably the only place you could go. But the internet has made online shopping so much easier and better, so the question now is should you buy online or offline?
Actually, it's usually a good idea to go to the local electronics store to get a physical demonstration of almost any TV that you are thinking about buying. That's a huge advantage that offline retailers have, you can actually physically examine the merchandise before the sale. However, if it is one of the large electronics store chains, most often the service will not be all that good, and don't expect the sales staff to be very knowledgeable either.
They are often low paid salespeople who are not hired for their knowledge of the products...

Winegard?s Bob Howell Emphasizes DTV Education and Bottom Line to Satellite Installers in Keynote Speech at Satellite Expo 2005
Memphis, Tennessee (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) June 27, 2005 -- In addressing retailers, manufacturers, installers, technicians and satellite industry executives at the opening breakfast at Satellite Expo 2005, Bob Howell, Director, Distribution Systems/Off-Air Antenna Business Group for the Winegard Company, in delivering the Keynote speech, commented on the new draft legislation of the Digital Television Transition Act of 2005, due out at the end of this month. Howell said "while the later date may affect the consumer's sense of urgency, possibly effecting sales levels for manufacturers and retailers of set top boxes and digital TV's in the short term, I think the extra time will ultimately have a positive result. It gives everyone more time to get their plans straight and it gives us more time to educate everyone about DTV and HDTV, which, in my opinion, will ultimately accelerate interest and sales."Pointing out that there was...

TiVo: An Introduction for the Few Who Don't Know Yet
TiVo will change your life... for the better. Plain and simple: record shows by telling TiVo to record them (not when, what channel, how long, etc.), record all new episodes of X, record all movies w/ so-and-so in them, etc.High Points:Most people know the basics of the concept. Here's the low-down on the things I'm asked most...1. You can record one thing and watch something else already recorded.2.
You can get a dual tuner TiVo, but you'll need two SEPARATE feeds to the TiVo (i.e., two lines from your satellite dish). Then you can record 2 things at once or watch one/record another. These are more expensive, but you can get a DirecTiVo w/ dual tuner cheaper and then the monthly TiVo fee is about half normal.3. Pause live TV - if you don't realize the value of this, I can't explain it. :)TiVo has many different versions which all some slight variations.
If you want to go beyond 'average guy' level, check out this forum.Comparison to ReplayTV:TiVo seems to have a better...
