Is there a difference in upscaling quality between the cheaper 30-50 DVD players that upscale and the upscaling capabilities of a BLU player / PS3? I am kind of limited on funds after my TV purchase which is why I am thinking about upscale DVD player.

I haven't tested a bunch of different upsampling DVD players, but my experience is you get what you pay for. A cheap upsampling DVD player won't do justice to your new HDTV. If you buy a cheapie, it most certainly wouldn't have the quality of the components in a PS3. If you're going to spend $100-$150 to get a decent one, then why not just wait until you have the extra cash for a 2nd PS3? Since you have one now, chances are you're not going to want to rent/buy DVDs anymore, so a better long-term solution IMHO is to go for the PS3.
