    pretty straightforward. when I popped it open, it has 1 pci-e slot taken by the wifi, and two open (one marked for cell phone, one looks just like wifi but unmarked). it has 2 sets of antenna cables also. anything I'm missing here or should it be as straightforward as I hope to put HD in it?
    also, is the a301 ATSC capable, or is DVB-T totally different?

    TV System (Digital) DVB-T
    TV System (Analog) PAL/SECAM/NTSC (Worldwide)

    the A300 is ATSC only, I suppose I could go for that since NTSC is ending soon enough anyway...
