Now, if my TV had a native resolution of 1920x1080, 720p wouldn't look as great as 1080p.

What have you seen in 1080p? What source?
So far? Just trailers... and some NASA Shuttle launch video a friend sent me.

See pic? That's 720p(which is more or less the same as 1080i) on this laptop's screen.
To me, this is depressing - YMMV.

Well this article says that they will have some HD content..

FYI people saying they don't need HD, or 720p is enough is ok if you have EDTV.

If you have a 1080i or p native LCD, anything less doesn't look so great (IMO, since it's down converting).

I can't get BSG in HD, so this would be cool to d/l off xbl if they didn't charge so much.. As it stands, I can just download a HDTV source encode off BT which looks better than the analogue/SD channels I have to watch it on.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17234699 Tue, 07 Nov 2006 18:12:45 EDT Re: Bandwidth Caps http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17233406 detth : What have you seen in 1080p?

I read standard definition will be the initial offering with select high definition programs at a higher price.
Yep! :huh:

said by SRFireside See Profile :

Keep in mind 1080i is not much different in resolution from 720p. Actually they are almost identical.
People don't understand that though... all they see is the HD part and think it's all the same. It's not!
After seeing HD @ 1080p, 720p or 1080i is depressing.

They don't even bother to mention the quality in the news release which means that it will be junk and overpriced.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17231723 Tue, 07 Nov 2006 09:35:45 EDT Bandwidth Caps http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17231705 phxmark : The cable cos will now be ones to start enforcing the bandwidth caps since some peoples will use the XBOX instead of the cable cos ppv.
