"In the quest for smooth CRT-style motion..." Are you drunk ? CRT TVs usually topped at ?)Hz interlaced, and even the 100 or 120Hz ones didin't have motion interpolation. 120 and 240Hz with motion interpolation is yet another image-destroying gimmick to try to sell a new TV to Joe Six-Pack who doesn't know better. Too bad Joe Six-Pack isn't able to tell the difference between SD and HD, and doestn't care one bit.
Hey, i resemble that remark! I just got my $40 x 2 government rebates for digital to analog converter boxes and picked up 2 and paid some tax for them. They give a clear picture on my analog tv (looks like dvd to me). When looking at the hdtvs in the store, they all look ok (the ones that aren't blurry), just like dvd pictures to me. More cycles per second do not impress me. My pc is set at greater than HD resolution - lets go for 2048p on the tv, then i'll be impressed ... I won't care, but I will be impressed :)
