I have read many of these great comments & reviews and persused product specs, but have one question that remains unanswered:

Do the new A3, A30, and A35 players all have identical SD DVD upscaling performance? I have read reviews that say the XA2 has the best upscaling, and the A35 has 'very nearly as good' upscaling performance. But if one doesn't need the extra capabilities of the A35, will the A3 do just as well in this area?

I am looking to upgrade my SD player to an HD-DVD, but will most frequently be playing my 28 years of SD Star Trek SD DVDs, so upscaling is one major reason for upgrading.

Thank you.
