FWIW I know that when Ive gone into Bestbuy and they have the blueray demo going on that 32" Samsung, you can definitely see a difference. I think its only worth it when your watching it up close like \<4’ from the TV. Other than that, I can see a difference when Im sitting on my couch.

I can tell a big difference between 1080p and 720p/1080i, I know I’ve owned both tv’s before. From a reasonable distance its easy to tell the difference… its twice the pixels!

To both of these, I would be willing to put money on the fact that the difference is your source, not the TV.

A good source will net a better result than a better resolution. People don’t understand this concept for some reason, but what ever pay a premium for something that looks better on paper than on anything else.
