playstation 3 blueray and 1080i


I bought a 50" Pioneer elite plasma (1080i) last year
I sit 10' away and have excellent resolution with upsampled dvds.

I'm considering getting a ps3 for my son ($600) that would also do blueray. I here they now have a remote (don't have to use the controller) and it now upsamples

anyone have one and want to comment on it's video and audio

also how much am I loosing in 1080i versus newer 1080p

thanks

hi tom the ps3 is a great blu ray player. the sound is great if you get a fiber optic cable such as the audioquest optilink 5.

I notice a huge difference between 1080i and 1080p but I bet some will disagree.
yes it outputs in all formats. I watch my blu rays in 1080p
I got mine about two weeks after launch and it outputed in 1080i. Sony is constantly doing upgrades.
