For things like sports and games, 720p isactually better than 1080i because of it's higher temporal resolution. If you're still interested, listen to Major Nelson's podcast a few weeks ago with the HDTV guy, it was way detailed as to why.

DefJef,

It's a reasonable assumption that the large majority of eary adopting Xbox 360 owners are also videogame enthusiasts. Don't think there's many Grandma's importing Tetris on the thing. =)

I remember that poll; I was not planning on getting one in the next six months, but ended up getting a 51" Widescreen HDTV a couple of weeks ago because it was on sale.

I wouldn't say spoiled; we just like gaming.
