engadget.com— All you owners of HDTVs that can only do 1080i, we've got some bad news for you. Sony is unable to confirm that they can resolve this issue via firmware update

Different devices output different resolutions for different reasons. They're can be just one resolution -- that's totally impractical. It takes about 5 minutes of reading to understand the different resolutions and to check if your TV supports them.
No OOT post please...My opinion is, if MS can give 1080p via firmware update, why Sony can't give 1080i via firmware update?However, I think Sony should saw this, long ago.Hey, Sony doing television business too...

"Why cant we be like the japanese, they already have 3840 x 2160 HDTV (quad-HDTV)"I think I like Ultra High Definition Video at a resolution of 7680x4320 better. But that's just me. <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_High_Definition_Video">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_High_Definition_Video</a>

Oh, only $700? You're still getting ripped the f**k off. You wouldn't pay $450 for a $350 iPod and call it a good deal would you? Or

Further proof that Sony is becoming a 2nd rate Tech company, like Microsoft. LG is going to own their ass soon enough.
