Back in 1999, I purchased the wonderful (at its time) Toshiba TW56X81 rear projection 56" wide screen TV and also purchased a progressive scan DVD player to pair with it.
Even before any run time or calibration, there was a large "wow" factor for me when I plugged in The Matrix in how much better the picture was than I was used to.
Fast forward to today in which I have been watching 480p DVD's for 8+ years and 1080i satellite TV (via component) for about 3 years.
I am now ready to make an upgrade. This weekend I will be changing over from the Toshiba to a Sony Bravia SXRD KDS-60A3000 60" 1080p Rear Projection and also upgrading the progressive scan DVD player to a PS3.
When I plug in the Blu Ray Spiderman 3 disc that comes with the PS3, will I have anywhere close to the same sense of "wow", factoring in the new TV, 1080p with the fact that I have been watching 1080i sat TV for a couple of years?
