This is typical Sony misleading hype. Note there current Sony phrase
"Better than High Definition". They are referencing 1080p, the fact that
the first HD DVD Toshiba players will have 1080i, but they say nothing at

scared...consider the link by Allan, the content of which I find cogent and
persuasive.
