Just for full clarity:
So, you do not need any special antenna to receive HD. But, if you like certain aspects of an antenna, it may be LABELED as "HD".
Try cheap first.

All over-the-air television in the United States is broadcast using digital signals. There's no difference between a regular TV signal and a high-definition TV signal, or between a regular TV antenna and an HDTV antenna. Antennas may provide features, however, such as the ability to amplify a signal or point directly at a signal, and these antennas are commonly marketed as HDTV antennas. Choose an antenna that receives the HD channels you want to watch.

Also, if you want to watch on your ipad, iphone, desktop, laptop, etc. you can get a network attached tuner with software/apps for tv guides and dvr capability.
Check out EyeTV.
ETA:
I posted the EyeTV because you mentioned the ipad but there are plenty of other devices that vary from as cheap as $50 depending on what you want/expect, but the EyeTV is compatible with almost everything.
I'll probably get it when I'm ready to upgrade because I already have several Rokus and NoWhereMan has a private channel for watching live TV, not just recorded (what I'm limited to now with my HDHomeRun).
