• Whether airships are the future of air travel is a different issue form whether their use should not extend beyond novelty tours.
  
  They are very valuable for border patrol, anti-submarine, missile defense, and other surveillance-heavy work that requires extensive presence with minimal fuel consumption. Our UAV-heavy troops in Iraq and Afghanistan would benefit from them. In reply to: "World's largest zeppelin dedicated at NASA facility"

• I thought it couldn't display 720p
  Check out the PDF at http://preview.tinyurl.com/ohf4z ; on page 2 it looks to me as if the TV can accept 720p input (right column), but doesn't display 720p; only 480i/p or 1080i (left column). My guess is that either the TV or your XBox 360 is converting the picture to 1080i.
  
  And be glad, by the way, that you went with Microsoft (I can't believe I just said that) because PlayStation 3 owners who have TVs like this have experienced the unpleasant surprise of having their 720p output downconverted to 480p (standard-def progressive-scan DVD level) rather than changed to 1080i. Sony has finally responded to consumer outcry and vowed to patch this problem, but who knows when, and their surly attitude, blaming the consumers of "antiquated" TVs (I just bought this thing last month) leaves a lot to be desired.
