Actually 1280 x 1080 is HD, but not true HD (1080i). 1920 x 1080 is TrueHD (1080p). Hope this helps to clarify.

1920 x 1080 is HD. This will give you, by doing the math 1.777 repeating or 1.78:1 aspect ratio(HD). So yes, you are wrong.

Just found this here - may be of interest: Delta Electronics Launches the Industry’s First Full HD LED Home Theater DLP® Projector http://www.deltaww.com/press/press_detail.asp?id=230 Hoping that we’ll know more about price and availability after the IFA and CEDIA shows.

I’ve only ever read 13 million people current still use Off-air tv service not the vastly increased number given in this article. And i fail to see how the couple mentioned at the start of this article are going to lose their TV service given you mentioned they have a new digital tv. Its only the analog TV that will…

Are you really enough fo a stooge to believe the contrast ratios companies claim?  1000000:1 is more than the human eye!  Completely ridiculous! Alos, who really cares about slimmer TVs?  You’d think better performance and lower price would be more important to most consumers
