I seem to recall reading a post that the PCH actually upscales standard def to 1080 (or 720 depending on your setup).
If true, that is excellent. However, I'm wondering how it deals with standard def content that was letterboxed (to display 16:9 on a 4:3 set). If I'm watching on my widescreen, will it fill the display or will I get a letterbox/pillarbox combo?
I can't wait to get my hands one.
