PS3 firmware "update" well, isn't

This "update" supposedly scales most everything to 1080i, regardless of your preference. If you have a native 1080p game, but your TV doesn't support it, it will downscale to 1080i, rather than 720p. Here's the kicker, if you disable 1080i output and force 720p, Blu-Ray movies will default to 480p.

Bravo, Sony. I (salute) you.

Sony isn't a a software company. It's no wonder they can't figure this out. It's shocking that the supercomputer powers of teh cell can't handle this.
