Default Question about the Sony Playstation 3

Hi. Does the Sony Playstation 3 upconvert standard definition DVDs for 1080i output? Do you find that it does a better job than upconverting DVD players?

In my opinion I would say it is comparable with panny s53 and the sony 78.

The PS3 does a much better job than the upconverting DVD player that has been consigned to our yard sale closet (whichever brand it was).
