Re: 720p or 1080i?

I can tell the difference on my lcd between 1080i and 720p, 1080i does indeed try and look a little sharper but it falls down from flickering in the white sections and general jaggled lines in areas of high contrast under motion.

I just wish the ps3 would let me set a default resolution and other 'optional' resolutions, rather than it letting me tell it which ones my tv supports and then picking the highest one.
1080p of course will give the best results however most tv's dont support it!
Those that do are tv's with a native resolution of 1920x1080 or above
The only real use for an interlaced picture is on a crt.
