    thor, if you want HD from freeview it is already available in some areas however the tv or box you use would have to have a Freeview HD tuner built in.

    I better check my tv manual.
    Would it be too much to expect a HD tv with built in freeview to have a HD tuner as well?

    Unless you bought your TV this year it's unlikely to have a Feeview HD tuner built in. This is what the 'Ready' means in 'HD Ready' - you can plug a box into it and it'll display HD.
