HD signals are only worth it if you watch quite a bit of sports IMO..since the rest of the channels in canadian providers are lacking..
Downloads are fine too, but you are missing out if you are still downloading them in SD. Once you watch shows in HD, its hard to go back. And I'm not sure what you mean by lacking cause right now you can catch your favourite show in HD and they air 2-3 times a day. I find it great, its just costs $$$. I'm with underscore, if you are not watching it in HD you are missing out! At least download the 720p encodes at a minimum.

I'm currently in the market as well, with pretty much the same price point as the OP. Looking into the 610 or a plasma but wondering if Panasonic is the way to go. Kuro would be nice tho lol.
