There is no such thing as "full" HD. That was a marketing gimmick from day one.

Umm, isnt 720p classified as HD, and 1080p classified as Full HD?

Full HD was a marketing term created to promote 1080P tv sets. The idea was to force 720P and 1080i owners to feel like they're getting "less" HD and thus, pony up for a better television. The problem with that is, where do you go after "full"? I mean, you can't get any more full than full, right? By definition, once something is full, there is no more room left... hence the idiocy of the term. Ultra is not fuller than full etc.
