Sorry if this is going over old ground but how can a 720p picture be considered as good as a 1080i - except for fast action scenes? Surely more information (detail) can be displayed in 1080 lines rather than 720. So a fairly static scene would look sharper in 1080?

ABC chose 720p but now has lost Monday Night Football!!!!
