too bad the WMV9 version can't be played on a standalone dvd player and take advantage of the high quality.

New DVD players will have a chip in them with the codec, if i remebr right there are some 15 manufacturers on board.

I haven't read anything about the new players including the codec. I guess only MS is powerful enough to get companies to adopt it. Especially considering that DIVX has been out for so long. I am not trying to say that DIVX is anywhere close to this technology but you can't deny that bitrate for bitrate divx puts mpeg2 to shame.

Let me know when they have some consumer level HDTVs that will display 1080p...

Well you could output the video signal to a TV. I know that some video cards have component outputs and combined with the digital outs on most sounds cards you could have a nice looking movie. Of course my 27inch tv will see no benefit from this technology.

1080P? Dayamn...

Too bad there are no TV's that can make use of that.

I suppose a nice projector could though...

Not so fast...

AFAIK, this set will not accept a 1080p input. It will accept 720p and 1080i and upconvert to 1080p.

Where does it say that?

It's true.

That set is also discontinued, and a replacement is slated for September. (likely supporting 1080p and 1440i)
