Hello. Have been seeing a couple of televisions/displays marked with "ED" or "Enhanced Definition" stamped on the "Feature" cards at my local electronics store. Of particular interest is a Panasonic Plasma display, the PT-42PD3, which is 42" diagonal. At Panasonic's site, it mentions that is has a HDTV display capability of 480p.
My questions are, 1.) Is this a true-HD display standard? And is it is, 2.) Why do they call it EDTV? Lastly, Will the upcoming (Hopefully) switch to pure HD programming have 480p support?
Thanks for any info or answers.
