No 2-3 pulldown according to NeoDigits, which means there will be jaggies all over the place on this unit.

what is the importance of the 2-3 pulldown?

Clint,

I'm a clueless newbie-what is the importance of having a 2-3 pulldown feature on these upconverting players?

Thanks,

The first hint of the weakness of the player is it's price, for less than $200 you can have the best upconverting player in the world (I realize they didn't make that claim), in your dreams.
