Be very careful that you don't read too much into the hipe regarding what these cheap upscaling players are advertised as being able to do with SD discs. Yes they will upscale but the quality is nowhere near HD quality. You would probably see no difference between the upscaled image via the player to the image via it's scart connection and upscaled via the display to it's native resolution.
You really need to be looking at the top end players for good quality scaling, but as HD DVD players are much cheaper, approx £330, there really isn't any point in paying over the odds, especially when the real thing will most probably out class even the dearest upscaler.
kenny brockelly - What display are you using?
Is it a standard display or HD ready?
