The space I have to put the TV is limited in width, but not so much in height. Therefore, it makes more sense to have a 4:3 TV, all other things being equal, because I can get more screen that way. That makes sense, right? I don't really have any HDTV signals to feed to the TV, so HDTV isn't immediately important, but it might become so at a later date. (Then again, with the luck I have with TVs, this one'll go bad before anything interesting happens on that front.) Oh -- and the 4:3 HDTVs are really HDTV, right? It's just that when they go to HDTV 16:9 mode, they blank the top and bottom instead blanking the sides in 4:3 mode, right? And some of them have modes to compress anamorphic images vertically instead of stretching horizontally, right? It seems to me that a TV that can do 1080i must require better convergence than a regular NTSC TV. Is that true? Bad convergence has always been one of my pet peeves, and that might be a selling factor, even if I don't directly use the high resolution initially. Of course, I suppose I can just look at it at the shop. My DVD player is not progressive-scan, but I might think about getting one in the future. Do I need to make sure that the TV will support 480p, or is that a standard feature, or a standard HDTV feature?
