CTC, what advantage would you be looking for? You have a 1080p set which has to scale DVD or SDTV material so that it can be properly displayed. The fact that you specifically used "upscaling" in your description indicates that you consider this important, but since your set already does this it would only be advantageous if the scaling in the player was visibly better than that in your set. There's no way to tell whether any of the players that you list would do this. Without knowing this it may be better to kill the bug at this time and wait for the HD players.
