Does built in tuner mean you still need the comcast box or it can decode QAM signals (unencrypted ones) meaning I can get CBS, Fox, NBC, etc in HD?
Disclaimer: I'm not an HDTV expert, I'm just sharing my limited knowledge
1) With an HD tuner you can use an antenna and get free OTA. You won't need a cable or satellite box.
2) With a QAM tuner you can pickup unencrypted HD channels through your regular non-HD cable.
Assuming my antenna signal is weak, I want my next LCD to have a QAM tuner.
I'm not sure how far you are from SF but here's a good thread which discusses OTA/QAM for that region
