Whatever you buy will be passe next year, do your research[read reviews], look for the best picture you can find in your price range [try to check out the picture in HD and SD] and bargain hard with the salesmen and check out the stores return policy.

LCD's are, buy their nature, progressive. Now whether or not they accept a progressive signal or not, that is changing, but all LCD's display an image progressively.
And I'm not sure you are going to see broadcast TV, Satellite TV or Digital Cable offering 1080p simply because of the amount of bandwidth that would be required.
1080p will be the domain of video games and HD movies, at least until better compression is developed. (but I would still like to get one)
