The TV is just showing you what the input resolution is that is being received. The Wega engine then upconverts the signal to 1080 in order to fill your screen.

As far as blurryness, I haven't really noticed with mine (XBR40). I've actually been fairly impressed with how non HD channels are still looking pretty darn good on full screen (not nearly as good as HD though ). The HDMI cable makes a big difference.

What Sony did you get?
