Personally, I'd not bother with 1080p on a set that small.. I very much doubt you'd be able to tell the difference between 1080i or 720p and 1080p. you could ask if they can show you something in 1080I then 1080p at the store. (And I'd bet they can't in most stores) Youll most likely need hdmi for 1080p too. Bear that in mind. get as many hdmi inputs as possible. I was talking to a supposed expert in CC yesterday who told me 1080i isn't even possible over component (apprently it doesn't have the "lines" to do it!) - It IS possible, and not that uncommon with the right dvd player (it's just frowned upon by the studios). So you might not want to ask in a big box store for advice ... |
