And yes, there is a difference between 1080i and 1080p. Don't believe me, then go to the store and watch one of the Blu-Ray movies running on a display at 1080p, and then go watch one of the TV's that can only do 1080i. I promise if you don't see a difference you are blind.

See, the problem is you are thinking that sets labled as 1080i have a resolution of 1080i. What is almost always the case is that these sets accept 1080i signals, but only have a 720ish resolution - hence why you see a difference.

1080i/60 is the same thing as 1080p/30, only interlaced. A decent TV with a deinterlacer will convert the 1080i source to 1080p, thus any difference you see is in your head.
