Just wait until
they start pumping out proper 1080 video and all those people who
bought HDTV-ready plasmas and LCDs (with a native v-res of 720 pixels)
realise they've been shafted...
I'm completely amazed at how few people I've talked to feel like they got "shafted" when they purchased their 720p displays. Now that Samsung and Mitsubishi have 1080p DLP's and 1080P LCD's are starting to become commonplace, I've talked with a bunch of people who own 720p TV's and they all seem to just see it as "normal."

It seems that people have become so accustomed to buying a computer that's obsolete by the time they get it home that they even see the 1080p displays as "normal technological progression." Some are even considering upgrading their 720p displays. Pretty amazing that people think nothing of a $3000 TV becoming obsolete within a couple of years.

Just an observation . . . for what it's worth.
