The Silicon Optix chips are the best for upconversion right now, hands down. The Reon HQV should have no problem doing 3:2 pulldown for 1080i film content, and motion-adpative deinterlacing of 1080i video from your FiOS box. Home Theater magazine recently evaluated the video upscaling performance of a number of A/V receivers. The only ones that passed all tests were the ones with the Silicon Optix chips in them.
