One thing for which I haven't been able to find a definitive answer. Can I hook up a Time Warner Cable line directly to my new Sony HDTV, which is digital cable ready, has built in HD tuner, and supports CableCard, WITHOUT a set-top box or CableCard, if I JUST want the network affiliates? I don't need decryption of any premium channels, for which I know I would need CableCard. I just want the stuff they give you with the basicest basic lineup. That includes HD at no extra cost, but do I need something other than a bare cable wire for that?
