One more question. This might have been covered. Can you run your xbox360 in 1080p mode on a 720p TV to get the better input source?

It looks like I going either the kuro or the panny 50'. I told my wife how much an elite was and I thought she was gonna kill me.

I got my calibration done by someone who came highly recommended on the AVS Forums. Unfortunately, he only takes trips if he gets a group of TVs to do so I don't know if you would be able to get him. Here is his site:

HDTV by Chad B

It ran me $375 minus $50 for referring a few friends. I also had him calibrate my HT gear for $85.

You can definitely run your Xbox in 1080p on the TV, it just won't show up as that. I am not positive on the technical aspects why, but it does work. (I have a PS3 hooked up through HDMI 1.3a)
