Default Probably shouldn't buy an HDTV

. . . from Circuit City.

I was browsing achieve360points.com and saw a Circuit City ad animated in Flash. The ad is done with a basketball broadcast theme and scrolls through HDTV technology kind of like a tournament progression: LCD > Plasma > 720i > 1080p. . .

720. . . i??

It doesn't just happen once, either. When the animation concludes, the ad gives you a "rollover for more info" type section. When you do that, down in the lower-right corner it offers, "The Stats," with in-depth info on 720i vs. 1080p.

I know I wouldn't feel comfortable buying my $2500 TV from a company that is inventing new display modes.
