I'm looking to buy a DLP rear projection television. I've been holding out for some time now for this new SXGA+ chip from TI, and hear that maybe by the end of the year some televisions will come equipped. Question #1 is: Will 1080p be any good (i.e. is there any point), when most broadcasts are either 1080i of 720p and HD DVD's won't take mainstream market for a while now. Question #2: Why does the Samsung 63" TV with the HD3 chip only have a contrast ration of 1500:1, when the 56" with HD2+ chip has 3000:1. I hope someone can help me with these!
