Toshiba 36ZP38 waste of money?

I bought a Toshiba 36ZP38 before christmas, but have I wasted my money?

Every magzine I read or web article seems to plug HDTV eg new dvd formats will be HDTV?

Does HDTV make that much difference?

Cheers

HDTV makes a huge difference, but there isn't a TV available (well, CRT at least) that can support it.

You most definitely haven't wasted your money on the toshiba.

Cheers Dimmy, Put mind at rest.

Also found the HDTV thread and did bit more research.

All of JVC's new DIST sets do HDTV (p37 and p38), aswell as their upcoming DIST idtv's, but saying that, I doubt HDTV will be in full swing for another 5 years, plenty of time to save up

JVC's DIST sets are plasmas are they not?

If there's CRT ones available they do the same as Pixel Plus, and boost source resolution rather than sreen resolution...
