Looks pretty good
. I'll wait for reviews (and price
) first.
Seraphic-: CRT TV's (those fat ones) display interlaced or progressive video, whereas LCD and Plasma TV's only display progressive video, so they are always equipped with deinterlacers. The DVD specs. allow you to record 480i@29.97fps and 576i@25fps video (that's NTSC and PAL, the normal TV systems every TV accepts) to a DVD, so if you display it on a CRT TV it'll display it interlaced, and if you use a Plasma or LCD, it'll be displayed as progressive video.
About the comparison between the all in wonders to the theatre 650 pro... I believe the new chip would be better than the older ones.
