I agree that it's another annoying piece of marketting-babble-speak.
BUT, I would make the slight case that 1080p IS beyond what is
currently marketed as HD, which is 720p or 1080i.

Of course, then you ask yourself, "Do I have a TV with 1080p inputs?"

The answer is "no" of course, since almost ALL the 1080p HDTVs do NOT
have 1080p inputs, not even teh new Sony SXRDs, which they'd ostensibly
market to accompnay BluRay. *sigh*
