I wouldn't know personally - I haven't had any HD experience on TV. Would love to, though... Conan is in HD!

The majority(ie. more than 50%)of networks broadcast in1080i. 720P is the minority.

And "full HD" is some marketing term thought up. When the HD specs were finalized there was nothing called full HD and there still isn't. It's HD and can be in several formats.
