I say this because I see the soft washed out picture whether I'm at 720p or 1080i, but I also get the flicker with 720p.

Whereas Lew says he can't see a PQ problem unless he's up close and looking at the interlacing.

Hopefully they are one and the same... but I have that nagging doubt.

It could also be that the washed out problem is a symptom of the interlacing problem on certain TVs. Does your TV have any picture processing turned on? I've calibrated my TV with the AVS HD 709 calibration disc and as a result all of the picture processing is switched off.
