That would be wasted in the UK then, the signals are so compressed its pointless having a HD television anyways, unless your prepared to pay extra for Sky's so called HD service, which incidently is still heavily compressed and still doesnt exploit the tv to its best if you have 1080p !!!!!!!!

My Ride: 2005 (01/05 Build) Titanium Silver Metallic 530i, Black Dakota Leather Interior w/Dark Poplar Wood Trim, Cold, Premium & Sport Packages, Steptronic, Bluetooth
MODS: OEM 166's (M5 Offset) on General's (245/35 & 275/30), 15mm H&R Spacers, Auxiliary Audio Input, 6000K Xenon Headlights and Matching HID Fogs, AIB v3.0, SprintBooster, OEM LED License Plate Bulbs, Smoked LED Side Markers, Matte Black Kidney Grills
Wanted a 1080p unit but at the time but couldn't wait so got a Sony KDS-R50XBR1. Phenomenal picture, when the optical block and lamp are good (bleh).
I have been turned onto blu-ray as of late so a new tv to fully exploit the player just might be in order =)

I'd heard about professional calibration being needed to get the best, but never had it done... Maybe I should, and then it would be like getting a new TV...

it really is a night a day difference when it is done correctly. Just make sure whoever does it is ISF certified.
