You are missing the point. The problem with most HD TV's is that they will not display the input source without loosing resolution because the low quality processor used. Best case is an external processor will fix the problem. Worst case is will not.

No, I am not missing the point. The HDTV's will display exactly what they say they do baring that the input is not exceeding the HDTV's native resolution. I have said this before.
Fixed-pixel displays follow a few basic rules:
No matter the resolution of the source material, whether VHS, DVD, or HDTV, a fixed-pixel display will always convert, or scale, it to fit its native resolution.
If the incoming source has more pixels than the displays native resolution, you will lose some visible detail and sharpness, though often what you're left with still looks great.
If the incoming source has fewer pixels than the native resolution, you're not getting any extra sharpness from the television's pixels.
So a good portion of HDTV's have poorer processing, it's still not something the average consumer is concerned with because there really isn't enough of a significant difference for most to tell. As long as the new source is sharper and cleaner to what they were a custom to before the word HDTV ever existed they are happy. Once they are in, they will eventually grow and learn with this evolving industry.
