1080p, foo. Need that shiznit with the Blu Ray.

Plus itll be good for the economy.

And Costco doesnt have those prices for 1080p.

What's the diffrence from 1080i and 1080p? I have the 50 inch and HD runs at 1080i.

it's 1080p. the p comes from the br player. ntsc tv comes in 1080i. but there is alnmost no difference to the human eye. Check it out at best buy. There's a major complex formula that explains how 1080p on br is pretty much 1080i compressed and changed via a complex algorithm. Someone posted it on some forum someplace. I forget the link. Not like I could understand it.

A client of mine owns a electronics business, mainly providing displays to companies. He said he would be able to get me this bad boy for about $1,700.

Im tempted mainly because I just got a Blu-Ray player, and although it looks good on my 32" LCD, Im sure itll look orgasmic on this.

I could tone it down and get a 42" of this model for about $1,000.

Make up my mind, folks.

Bigger than 42" go with dlp, otherwise lcd. Plasma is over-rated, overpriced, overweighted, power bill spiked and long term deflated performance degraded garbage.

There is a difference between 1080i and 720p for videogames though. I remember playing Gears of War swapping between the two res's and 1080i was noticeably glitchy, while 720p was smooth and pristine. 1080i is best for stuff like viewing photos.

1080p means 1080 pixels per inch in a “progressive” scan format. 1080i means the same pixels in “interlaced” format. Progressive scan broadcasting offers a higher quality picture so a 720p broadcast is similar to a 1080i broadcast. I’m not going to get into the technical aspect of this but I can tell you that unless you have better than 20/20 vision and you are sitting within 2 feet of your television screen, you don’t even have the chance of noticing the difference between 1080i versus 1080p, or 1080i versus 720p.

While you're at it, would you get me one too?
