If a single-disc player is acceptable(I'd never seriously consider one again)this is a good buy. The advertising is however misleading at best, if not flatly untrue. Players that scale up DVD output to fill HD displays with a full picture can't "...upconvert(s) standard DVDs to HD quality". If the player doesn't do it the HDTV has to do the scaling to show a complete picture. Either the TV or the player might scale better, or there may be no visible difference, but in no case is it actually "HD quality".
