Buy an HD set, get a DirectTV HD receiver for $99

Not a bad promotional deal from Best Buy: purchase any 30-inch or larger HD set for $999 or more and you get $100 off a DirecTV HDTV
receiver. The deal nets you a DirecTV set-top box for only $99.

Suppose you weren't ready to add HDTV channels from DirecTV, but you
did want some high-def programming for that new HDTV set. The satellite receiver for this deal isn't just for DirecTV programming; it has a built-in over-the-air (OTA) tuner as well. If you don't want that monthly bill for the HD channels just yet, you can add an antenna
to the receiver and, depending on where you live, you can get local digital and high-def programming for free. Not bad and extra monthly commitment!
You will need to have some type of DirecTV subscription to use the box,
but this could save a you a few bucks.

Have any of you taken advantage of promotional offers like this to get the OTA tuner?

Thanks for the tip Edward!
