    There already are a few the HD900 and HD9000 I have a HD900 on its way to me, even though there is no HD at all in Ireland yet!

    It is due out next year, I am mainly interested in it since it has HDMI and component out and upscales. I have heard it is a great improvement for pixelated football, one guy reported that and was previously using a dreambox 600 which is supposed to have a good picture.

    My plasma can only take component so I was going to get a itgate 220, but I spent the extra to future proof my box, since when HD is broadcast I would have got a HD box anyway. Also it is a small price to pay for the best pic you can get via HDMI. No point splashing out 2k on a good TV and then hooking up some bag-o-shite to it.

    Itgate are also going to release a HD box at some stage. The dreambox 800 is HD too, but the idiots never put HDMI on it! bit stupid IMO.

    2010 is the year they are quoting for HD in Ireland via cable, SKY or Sat is different.
