I don't know about the Polaroid, but I bought a Magnavox 15 " LCD this summer, it was HD ready and I found a $88 deal on a HD Receiver at Radio Shack and using an indoor UHF antenna the picture is unbelievable. I paid $270 but I have seen it for a lot less. It's our #2 TV since it's so small but we do watch a lot of shows on it if they are in HD. I'm thinking of getting the Mag 32" since the picture is so clear.
