Instead of whining about the fact that some of us are disappointed in the lack of quality vendors supporting the best available products why don't you just be satisfied with what you've got and let the rest of us tell the industry what we want?
It's too bad. You either have a lack of interest in better quality, or simply don't have the finical ability (could be desire but then that would imply humility which you obviously don't have) to afford the best products out there.
Assuming that's the case, it's truly unfortunate and I wish you all the best, but instead why don't you just accept that some of us would prefer to have the best quality available when shopping in the market and are disappointed at the lack of quality vendors in the market at the moment.
If you really are tired of hearing about it then perhaps you should join the crowd pushing for it (it would at least be more productive then whining about the existence of those who do) so that the industry finally delivers something to those that aren't satisfied with mediocre HD (and 720p IS mediocre in the world of HD).
Sorry but the 'best for your money' is exactly what the marketing departments hope you'd say and exactly NOT what you actually get. Research some 180i vs 1080p articles and educate yourself, it's really a waste of money and all marketing. 1080i is more than acceptable.
I do agree I'm disappointed the iTV tops out at 720p.
