Yeah but you're not mentioning the fact that most 720p TVs will accept 1080i signals but do not have the resolution of a full 1080p TV. Examples of this abound, but here's one that's only 1366 x 768 resolution but accepts 1080i signals. Since I assume it has to do some bit-banging magic to convert a 1080i signal to a lower resolution (and de-interlace it), it is easily possible that 1080i sources don't look nearly as good as 720p sources on such a TV, which is likely what Bube has.
