All but a couple of specific models of TVs only had 1080i inputs until mid-2006 when models like the Samsung HLS- series started shipping. Even then at least half of the TVs sold were still 720p models.

 

I happen to have a 1080p Samsung HLS with 1080p inputs but I'm still thinking of getting this since Netflix carries every US HD-DVD and blu-ray release.

 

If I buy it I can at least watch the HD-DVD exclusives in 1080i instead of 480i, when I can't get blu-ray version for my PS3.

Very few have a 1080p tv, and quite frankly, most people couldn't tell the difference. Posting "no 1080p" is a knee jerk snobbish post

1. You've obviously never seen 1080p.

 

2. 1080p set prices are coming down rapidly, and most new models are 1080p.

While I agree and personally have a 1080p set, there are still a LOT of people out there that have 720p or 1080i sets that would rather spend $240 on a player than thousands on a new set.
