Hi,
Got a screen with freeview built in digital reciever.

All's fine with standard definition, but the set is HD ready.

How do I savour the delights of this new medium?

Noticed freeview has some HD channels. - obviously I cannot get them.

... then broadband and a HD media player or Xbox 360 with MCE...

... then a HD-DVD player...

They are for a closed trial in the London area.

Anyone can view the test HD channels if you have the right kit...

They are closed in that only 500 (might've been 400) people who signed up were given set top boxes for the trial. Anyone that can pick up the channels in a channel scan can view the channels with the right kit. My panasonic DVD recorder can tune the channels in but obviously doesn't have a tuner in it capable of decoding the information. My nebula digitv usb tuner I have at work can tune the channels in and I can view them (albiet at about 10 fps).
