So, as some of you may remember, three-and-a-half years ago when I moved into the new home environment, I bought me a new state-of-the-art 65" Mitsubishi DLP TV. When I purchased it I already HAD a widescreen HD ready TV. THAT beast was already outmoded, I was told, because it didn't have HDMI inputs, which somehow had taken over the world since I'd bought the beast. So, I carefully asked if this was it, if this was truly HD and would work with all that was coming, including high-def DVD. I was assured it was. So, guess what? Now I'm told it isn't. Now I'm told that I'm only good enough for 1080i when 1080p is now the ticket. So, they were full of crap. I've got an i instead of a p and I am pissed with a p and irked with an i. They knew this was coming - they didn't just invent it out of the blue. Yes, a Blu-Ray player will upconvert to p but that isn't the same as BEING a p.
So, even if I wanted to do Blu-Ray, now I won't. And if anyone who bought this same TV three years ago feels the same sort of annoyance, they'll lose those sales, too. Bravo.
