I think it's a fucking con to say a TV can get the internet then charge extra for a wireless dongle
having said that, a hard line is much better anyway

HD ready means it will accept a HD signal and display it, but that's all it means
it might only display it at a lower resolution though. "Full HD" is 1980x1080 pixels, some HDTvs are only 1366x720 or less. Depends if you have something that gives out full HD though.
A "HD ready" TV could be a SD display that accepts HD signals, and that would be legal.
