Buying My First HD TV & Need Help

[skinsguy]

I bought a 32 inch Toshiba HD LCD about three years ago. It's just a 720p, but I am still amazed by the picture quality. I watch bluray on it all the time and play my PS3 on it as well. I would love to have a bigger TV sometime when I pay the car off, but right now, I'm more than pleased with the TV I have. In fact, it has a better HD picture than my friend's Sony 40 inch LCD he bought a few years back.

Now, I realize the higher HZ the better moving objects look, but I'm not necessarily convinced that 1080p is THAT big of a difference when it comes to broadcast TV. As far as I know, they are still shooting mainly in 720p/1080i.

Yes you are correct, only 1080p you can see is through a blu ray player.
