Not to mention in 1080p, you will have a framerate drop, its not even worth the money unless your TV is 50+, even then, its in question still.

Framerates are not inherently a part of resolution. A game can be 1080p without a choppy framerate.

If you are at the correct viewing distance for your monitor/TV, you should notice the difference. Try changing resolutions on a LCD monitor to similiar specs. If the TV is too large, the pixels are larger, and it is even more noticable. Course if you sit too close to a large TV (non optimum viewing distance), it can subjectively look worse because of the pixel size versus a smaller TV.

On TV's under 50", it's nearly impossible to tell the difference. This is true.

For larger front projection setups this ceases to be true, though.

No, I don't (I wish I did.)

I have demoed many units though.

I just can't afford one right now, and I don't have the space for a 100" screen.

It doesn't matter what it actually looks like. All that matters are the numbers a technical info.

The differeence in picture quality is but the difference to the human eye is much different.

Grive

To gauge that, you'd need to compare the jumps with an analogous jump in TV size. If we sit at the same distance from all three TVs, a 20" 480p TV will have the same quality to the human eye as a 30" 720p which will have the same quality as a 45" 1080p.

This is very true. Size and distance make more differance in the way you see image quality regardless of the rez of the image your looking at.

Bummed out cuz you got a SDTV with all the fancy high-def games? Move you butt backwards about 5 feet. Boom, you got HD. Of course, your farther away, and the screen looks smaller.
