[QUOTE="spiney, post: 146721, member: 192438"] well, yes, 1000x1000 is an unusual max resolution, as Pinkerton says most current plasmas start at 700x1300. So, not as good as that horizontally, but better vertically! Maybe a "previous generation" plasma technology, possibly once intended for showing Japanese "digital Muse" via cable (probably, if Panasonic). However, that resolution is still better than the current PAL/MPEG2 "main profile at main level" standard, so should display any HDTV DVI input with some resolution improvement, as expained above. (actually, the "p" figure is just no of screen "pixels", actual visible resolution is lowered by the "Kell factor", goolge this for info). (1280 was the intended production format for Eureka HDMAC, now defunct, only a few receiver sets were made for demo purposes, I'm not sure how much if any material was produced this way! Current intended max res is 1080 via MPEG4, this chosen for being easily compatible with both older PAL/SECAM and NTSC formats. 720 allows 50 Hz frames, on digital production equipment, not sure how this will look after MPEG4 coding!).
