My boyfriend just bought on a few weeks ago and his birthday is coming up soon. I've been reading and some forums suggest to purchase an upconverting dvd player. Is this what's best for this particular display? I'm not sure and I need some help.

I dont recommend an up-converting DVD player these days when both HD-DVD players and some BluRay players are available for not much more.
The up-converting players are not true HD. They take standard def, magnify it and fill in some lines so it fills the space of 720 or 1080 - but it's not HD.
Your Boyfriends TV up-converts standard def. How do these look? Not as good as the real HD.
Get him one of the following:
- Toshiba HD-A3 (HD-DVD player): $199
- Sony PS3 (BluRay player0: $399
- HarmonyLogitech Remote: $130

it only goes to 1080i not 1080p. Standard up converting is all you need. Recommend Panasonic DVD players as most reliable
