Some HD Ready TV's have them, some don't!!! Great eh!!

It is a small port slightly larger than a USB slot. Similar height. Go to the panasonic website and look up the spec of your TV. It should tell you there.

The problem was that a lot of the early HD ready TV's just had the screens and the companies were arguing about what connection to use.

The early normal HD connection was DVI. But this seemsto have been phased out and the general worlwide concensous is that HDMI will become the market standard for HD signal. The new PS3 will be on HDMI. I think that Sony/Samsung were the leaders in this type of connection.

I have seen pictures of the back of the TV Drive box and it has Component connections so you might be able to use these??!!?? But then I am not sure what you will do with the Xbox.
