HD tv first , or they work on normal tv....I hv 32 widescreen which i bought 2 yrs ago...i dont know if its HD TV , probably not....and in my opinion if before buying HD dvd players , u need to buy a tv...i dont know how many people are ready to do that
the ps3 will work on standard definition tv so i guess the blu-ray drive will work on standard definition tv's
if you have a 32 in widescreen tv it is HD to get HD you need HD tuner also when HD DVDS are played on a HD player you will get HD on your TV thru the componet input on your TV
