i have a philips dvp5982 (upscale to 1080p.. but i only used up to 1080i obviously) hooked up to a 1080i 32" LCD
i picked up the player for like $70 at best buy. i used to use a ps2 as a dvd player, but tha totally sucked for use with the LCD.. i bought the upscaling player because it was pretty cheap and i wasn't ready to buy a ps3
i think its pretty decent (ie you won't mistake it for a full on hd player but i dont regret paying $70 for it) and its dependent on the dvd (some dvds look better than others.. usually the newer ones upscale better)
personally i think its ok if you need a new dvd player but don't wanna drop dough on a xbox360 or ps3.. i wouldn't bother if you have a half decent progressive scan dvd player already
