Should I rent a Sony 28" IDTV or separate TV and tuner ?

I have just moved into a new flat, and am looking at renting a 28" widescreen for 6 months.

1st question: my new area has Freeview coverage. There is an antennae cable in the flat that connects to a rooftop aerial. Do I just plug this into the IDTV/Digibox to get Freeview ?

2nd question: I like the idea of an IDTV as it saves on clutter (both for digibox and remote control) and the image quality of Freeview is meant to be good. I have been quoted £5 extra a month for an IDTV compared to a TV/digbox setup. Any suggestions?

Cheers,

PK
