The percentage of electronics at the end of their lives which were recycled.
The EPA found that the percentage remained consistent from 1999-2005. Even as recycling rates went up, the amount of electronics reaching end of life outpaced the increase, leaving the figure static. (source: EPA, July 2008)

The whole 1080i vs. 1080p is a sham for film-based content. You can recover the complete 1080p24 picture from a 1080i60 output, as long as the flags are set correct. The one catch is if there was any vertical filtering used. It has been posted that HD DVDs do not have any vertical filtering, since its not really needed for HD.
There is one disadvantage having a device that outputs 1080p60. Your stuck with the 24>>60 judder, and since its progressive you can't get back to 24fps (or 48hz).
Once true 1080p60 or higher cameras become the norm (for HD video) , this will be an issue. One thing that might speed this up is the impending release of the "Red" camera, but thats a whole different story :)
