The diff between 1080i and 720p is negligible.
Beg to differ. DirecTV broadcasts about 100 stations in 1080p. When I switch from a 720 broadcast to a 1080p signal the difference is impressive. I had some friends over for the Pacquiao-Cotto fight. When we switched from a 720 program to the fight in 1080p everyone commented at once. It was a dramatic difference.
