THe Topfield5810 and Humax9300 have hdmi.

Personally I would not bother as the scalers in these are not as good as in the better TV's so you often get a better picture from SD RGB or Component than you do from the hdmi connection. (The Toppy 5800 has component out)

BTVision Box, all the current Sony PVR HDD/DVD-RW recorders (very good picture on 1080i IMHO) I use both of these for Freeview SD upsclaed to 1080i on my screen.

The PS3 clearly has HDMI, and if you already own one, PlayTV is a cheap way to get a PVR.

My Topfield 5810 has HDMI (as already mentioned). The picture quality at 720p is slightly better than with RGB. However, the menu's E.G. the EPG etc, look much sharper on HDMI than RGB.
