  • 37" is not too big, at all.
  • Star Trek TNG looks awesome.
  • I got WALL-E and the Police reunion tour DVD for Xmas!
  • It takes some configuring to get the right aspect ratio etc. for each signal source.
    ... (The TV doesn't "know" how you would prefer an inferior signal to be displayed)
  • I will be upgrading my DirectTV, and getting an upconverting DVD player.

Question: Can I get a DVD player that upconverts standard DVDs--and also plays BluRay discs?

Just get a PS3 - and a couple games... It plays both BluRay, music cd's and DVD's, but once you get a couple games you may never watch tv again. These things are HIGHLY addicting.
