Ok I have a Panasonic 32 inch HD 1080i. What I would like to know is what is the difference between 1080i and 1080p. Would 1080i make the image of my ps3 games and blueray discs better ? And what kind of cord do i need to project the images ? Thanks .

The difference between 1080i and 1080p is in the way the signal is sent from a source component or displayed on an HDTV screen. In 1080i each frame of video is sent or displayed in alternative fields. The fields in 1080i are composed of 540 rows of pixels or lines of pixels running from the top to the bottom of the screen, with the odd fields displayed first and the even fields displayed second. Together, both fields create a full frame, made up of all 1,080 pixel rows or lines, every 30th of a second.
In 1080p, each frame of video is sent or displayed progressively. This means that both the odd and even fields (all 1,080 pixel rows or pixel lines) that make up the full frame are displayed together. This results in a smoother looking image, with less motion artifacts and jagged edges.

if your tv suports 720p chose it over 1080i becuase 720p is better for fast moving images
