From the Irish Times

RTÉ’s Christmas present to viewers (apart from showing ET on Christmas Day) is high definition. The long-planned RTÉ One HD will be launched as early as next Monday, it is understood, with the channel replacing its standard-definition equivalent on the Saorview platform. It will also be added to the UPC channel line-up and become available on Sky shortly afterwards.

If it's anything like RTE2 HD, its almost pointless. The amount of stuff available in HD, but they show it in standard definition is unreal.

Pointless? I much prefer up scaled SD than the horrible resolution they were using before HD
