@Dee_Money: For the price they're asking, you could get a TiVo HD with Product Lifetime service and call it a day - and get OTA recording if you want, to boot. Or for not much more, get the HD XL with Lifetime (as someone else mentioned).
And HDMI 1.3? Who cares? It's not like your DVR is going to be getting any content that's going to take advantage of anything beyond HDMI 1.1. DSD? Advanced Dolby/DTS audio formats? 2560x1440 video? xvYCC? Deep Color? Anything? Don't think so. Also, no, there's nothing on cable in 1080p yet - even Dish only has a handful of on-demand movies in 1080p format, no actual broadcast content.
