I recently posted on the AVS forums that I was thinking about the Vizio 47″ and that I’d probably be buying an upscaling DVD player too. To my surprise, someone on the forum replied saying to hold off on the new DVD player and just use my current progressive scan player.

Now, HDEngadget is saying something similar too, pointing out that many HDTVs have upscaling already built in. So, it looks like I’ll be using my trusty Philips DVD player at first.
