Regular HDTVUK readers will know of interesting little debate that's been going on about the merits and availability of the top-end HD format 1080p. Recently Philips released a pair of LCD sets which it claimed were the among the first flat screen models in the world that could replay signals in the format. 1080p combines the highest HD resolution at the moment with progressive scan that ensures a steadier image and counters some of that flat screen flare that appears when the sets deal with fast moving objects. Although no broadcaster has committed to using the format it could potentially be used in Blu-ray and HD DVD as well as by broadcasters delivering high definition signals via the web.
