If you have a HDTV that does not support 720p or 1080p, the PS3 will bump you down to 480p instead of up to 1080i. There are also issues with picture quality with Blu-Ray movies if your HDTV doesn't support 1080p.
It's kind of hard to get one now, but I'd suggest holding off on the PS3 if you have a HDTV that doesn't support 720p until they get this problem fix. Sony had promised to fix it but they've just backed off on that.

Sony has contacted us to let us know that they may have spoken a bit prematurely. SCEA's Dave Karraker, Sr. Director, Corporate Communications, informed GameDaily BIZ that they currently cannot confirm that this 1080i issue will be resolved via a firmware patch. The official line is now that they are "looking into the issue and haven't stated any actions that will be taken regarding it."
