Is Panasonic TH-58PE75U 1080p or not?!?!?


Hi there,

I saw the Panasonic TH-58PE75U at Costco today. It's supposed to be going for $1900 on Friday. I looked at the technical specs at the Panasonic web site, and it indicates it's 1080p compatible, but its native resolution is 1366x768. I would expect a true 1080p set to have a native resolution of 1920x1080.

So what gives? Does "HDTV Compatibility" including 1080p just mean that it will take a 1080p signal, but it can't actually display it? It doesn't seem that it can have a 1080p display with a 1366x768 resolution, but I don't pretend to be an HDTV expert.

So who knows the truth?

Thanks!
