HDTV Compatible TVs
Are all LCD tvs HDTV?
I have two 26 inch LCD tvs I bought about 3 years ago but they don't have any HDTV markings on them? I know for a fact the 42" plasma downstairs is cause it says HDTV but how can I check with the other two? Ones a Syntax Olevia LT 27 HV and the other is a viewsonic N2750W.

FYI
720p is considered HD, but 1080i and 1080p will probably be the standard in the future. So, 1080x is the true HD of those 2.

Also, I agree that you cannot tell a difference between 720p and 1080p. 1080p is definitely a waste of $$$. Unless you are buying a TV that'* bigger than 60-something inches, then I imagine it would start making a difference. But, if you are buying a TV that big, you probably have the coin to get 1080p.
