HDTV is broadcast in 1920x1080 so it is a SD TV not full HD.. HD ready only.

I would only be viewing cable and DVD's through it, but it still seems a decent TV for the money.

At that price, I wouldn't expect top spec.

SD is 480p HD starts with 720p and full HD is 1080p.

Shows you are a good reader but sorry not on the money, as all the HDTV being transmitted here is in 1920x1080 and all MP4 SD is 756 x 576 (or maybe this is what you call HD). Please feel free to come and see for yourself live HD & SD TV

So, What is HD ready.. ? Can it, or will it be able to display HD or not ?

Most HD ready TV's will not do the full 1920x1080 from DVB-T, DVB-S2 or the likes .. But will work with a scaled down resolution in the 1200px - 1300px region as most DVB-S2 and AppleTV users have already found.
