If you want the simplicity that comes with the cable receiver being integrated with the TV then you should buy a TV with a cable card slot. However if you like TiVo then you would instead get a DVR, which will have its own cable card slot.
Standard Definition TV Format (SDTV) - There are two main digital formats - HDTV and SDTV. SDTV typically does produce better quality images than that of traditional analog TV and pictures somewhat akin to digital cable. However, its images are not nearly as sharp as the images from the ultimate form of digital television _ High-definition TV (HDTV).
SVGA - This acronym is short for the "Super Video Graphics Array" display mode. SVGA resolution is 800 x 600 pixels.
Channel - A 6 MHz (bandwidth) section of spectrum for over-the-air broadcast (channels 2 - 69) or in TV cable that carries one analog NTSC program or one or more DTV programs.
D/A - Conversion of digital signals to analog signals. Most set-top boxes decode the digital signals broadcast and then convert them to analog signal for interconnection to the display device.
