For 40 dollars more you get a 20 gig PS3 that’s not only a 1080p Blu-Ray player but also a game system.

What is the visual difference between 1080p and 1080i?

You quoted me before I got to fix my mistake. I meant 1080p not 480p.

If there wasn’t a difference then Toshiba shouldn’t be making 1080p HD DVD players.
Anyway, the biggest difference is when you’re watching a Hollywood movie shot on film because of the 24 frames per second.
