Agreed. And don't a whack more money on 1080p.
If you are looking at two Sonys, both 40" and one does 1080p and the other is native to 720p; if it's $200 then sure. But if it's $1000, I wouldn't yet.
Cable and satellite companies are strugling with bandwidth (how much data per second they can send along the cable) right now. The big drive will be to get more HD channels, not to up the quality of the current ones. 1080p requires about 50% more bandwidth, so we won't be seeing it very soon as the standard.
