Hmmm... The Zenith can't "upconvert". It could accept a 1080i signal though and display it. If you mean that you can't use a full screen viewing mode on 1080i, I think you are correct. However, I'm not sure why you would want to - youd either be distorting the picture to make it taller or chopping off the sides and zooming in towards the middle - both of which seem to me to be undesirable. I know that there are many that insist on full-screen presentation, but I really on.y buy and watch movies in widescreen, even if it means having black bars above and below the screen. I just figure that if that's how the thing was filmed, that's how I want to see it. Are you sure the Sony can use picture-mode processing on 1080i?
