My information is purely anecdotal. I know of no one who has actually
tested these newer cable ready sets under real world conditions.

You may have information that I don't, but I cannot say that the new 
INTEGRATED LG sets are not as good as the box I tested.  No one has 
brought any integrated set here.  It's a little tough to schlep them 
into my bedroom.  I can report only that no non-integrated receiver has 
yet performed as well as the 5th-generation LG prototype, still the only 
box to have received stable DTT on all Manhattan channels (roughly 2 
miles away) with a set-top antenna.

TTFN,
Mark
