You mean scales to 1024x768p. Your plasma is a progressive device, no interlacing should be necessary.

If you want lossless multichannel audio you need a receiver with HDMI inputs anyway, so the number of HDMI inputs in a TV is not that important....

Yes I know. That is what I use my receiver for. It is not the biggest draw back, but it could potentially become one.

Yes Sonny, do you have any brand preference at all? I guess, if you were to name one brand name as your favorite for television manufacturing, what would it be?

on a side note, the new Panasonic 32" LCDs have a 120 hz processor in them.

It seems the reviewer should have clarified himself. So I downloaded the PDF of the manual. It seems that it not accepting a 1080P signal is only a half truth. The manual says that through HDMI it will accept and display 1080P, but not through component. I assume this means that XBOX users are SOL...
