Only capable of 1280x1080i resolution except for OTA? I think this is missinformation. please correct the rumor. Isnt their hardware capable of 1920x1080i if they broadcast it?

"The writer was not misinformed....The specs state the capability of the Directv HD receiver as 1280 x 1080i. There is no need to transmit something the receiver can't handle.
The OTA capabilty however is 1920 x 1080 so OTA is definitly the way to go if the stations are broadcasting it."
