Yep. That's why many... myself included... really dislike it. It makes movies look like they were shot by your cousin on his HD camcorder or something. Some people like it, though, for whatever reason.

Understandable. But if you are buying an LCD set with local dimming LEDs, it WILL by 120hz and have the motion interpolation options in it. At this point, pretty much all upper-mid level and higher sets are 120hz and offer some form of motion interpolation, while only the very highest end sets have LED backlights and local-dimming. I don't know of a single set currently on the market (or planned) that has LED LD but not 20hz, so I wouldn't worry about it.
As far as for use on existing sets, only the 60p variant would work on most sets, and with only 12 REAL fps to work with I would think the effect would be so bad you would never be able to successfully market a product with the feature. I could be wrong on that, but since companies have looked at the possibility, but no one has released a product with the feature, I'm guessing their tests reached the same conclusion.
