Agreed, upconverting really does make a difference. I use an
upconverting DVD player and while it doesn't look as perfect as 1080i,
it is still quite impressive. It certainly looks a whole lot better than
some of the 720 stuff that is being broadcast as HDTV.

You said it up converts...but if nothing is HD what is
there to up convert? Up converting dvd players take dvds and push them to
480p AFAIK. But if your source is standard 480i, then it's never going to
be better then that.
Upconverting, when done well, is actually effective. It is not as good as
a real higher resolution signal, but it does improve the image. It is
done by interpolating. Most images are composed of shapes so it is not
hard to follow the edges and compute the additional pixels.
