I have a 46' Sony Projection that can do 1080i almost perfect. its about 1.5 yrs old and it does not have HDMI. I cant even do 1080p so HDMI is useless to me. But does 1080p make that much of a noticeable difference then 1080i? I seriously doubt it. Unless you have like a 65� tv. Also, why would Microsoft turn on the Image Constraint Token to DOWNSAMPLE from HD quality to DVD quality on a HD-DVD. PLAYER? We all know 1080i is far better looking then 420p.

First, There is no such thing as 420p. It is 480p. And as far as the difference b/w 1080i and 1080p, come on, look at the difference b/w 480i & 480p. It is noticeable. Now imagine more than double that difference.
Why are you using 1080i. Will your set not do 720p. Do you know the difference b/w interlaced and progressive.
