The qualifying boxes will only output SD, it will have s-video and composite, no Component, DVI or HDMI. So ATSC is ATSC, but the HDTV signal you receive will be downconverted to 480i/p. Much like the current DVD recorders with ATSC tuners that are out now.
As far as by next Feb the boxes being 1/2 the price, that may be true, but the coupons expire 90 days from the time they are mailed so you must use them quickly.
