You are incorrect about a 1080p not doing better with a 1080i input than say the other standard, 720p. There is no contest in which picture is vastly superior. If you haven't seen the proof yourself, than simply do the math and explain to me how you would use 720 vertical lines to eek out a 1080i picture. The "1080p" is only a measure of how it draws its own screen, and is therefore accurate, not misleading, and not subject to a lawsuit. The 1080i is essentially de-laced and both frames shown as one 1080p image. Go to a Sony Style store that carrys the Qualia line (very few of these stores) and see their "Blue Ray" Demo of Spiderman 2 on the 70 inch screen. It may not be a 1080p input, but the output is absolutely stunning and it is progressively displayed accross a 1080 (vertically) pixel array.
