I'll add that manufacturers shot themselves in the foot by marketing 1080p as “full HD”. Most people when talking about HD parrot that line. I've stopped even trying to counter it.

My dream TV is a 100” screen so thin you can roll it up. I'd think about replacing my projector with that if it weren't too pricey.

Actually, 1080p is Full HD because for consumer devices, 1080p 24 frames/second playback is what you get from a Blu-ray player. We forget that broadcast HD in the USA is only in 1080i and 720p formats.
