I guess the only thing I have to make sure is that the receiver passes 1080p/24... I guess its a marketing thing to make people thing that 1.3 is a great improvement over 1.2.... I was wondering about the lypsync feature on 1.3 ... does it make that much of a difference, or does 1.2 have something similar?

I haven't seen a need for any lip-sync stuff yet... But I guess my sony receiver and PS3 handshake very well.. I had the dg910 with hdmi 1.2 and it passed 1080/24p fine.. So to beat a dead horse.. yeah all you will need is a receiver with 1.2 and can pass 1080/24p..
