I got mine in the mail yesterday from Amazon. You don't have yours yet?

It is - however - very important if you are watching DVDs on an HDTV to output a progressive signal IMHO, that makes far more difference than upscaling.

But again, if you have a decent HDTV, it will do a better job of deinterlacing the signal than the DVD player would.

Absolutely. To be stunned by my 32" TV, I have to be no more than 6 feet away. At the couch distance a well mastered up-rezzed DVD looks just as good.

Cruel, cruel!

...or just delusional? In which case: "there, there, dear..."

Hey, I always get my Trek stuff early. Like action figures...

Not until it closes in the theaters and we have no idea when that will be.

Never mind getting to the second run theaters, it's still showing in the mall fauxIMAX theaters!

My HD-DVD player upconverts regular DVDs. There is almost no difference with HD source material. Eventually I will get a bluray player.

Well then one has to define "decent" a bit more precisely, I have never seen a "decent" UK model that can, though I'm sure some of the ones I'd class as "silly money" for a TV can. Some cost 1000s of pounds, which I'd class as car, not TV money. Is there a particular make/model you feel has this ability?

Certainly my Samsung one does not appear to do much in that respect at all, the Upscaled progressive signal through HDMI I have from one Pioneer DVD player looks better than the Component progressive but not-upscaled signal from a Yamaha player.
