    Default Target says Sony BDP-S350 plays SD DVDs in HD?


    In the Sunday ad for the Sony SDP-S350, Target advertises this model as "also plays standard DVDs in high definition."

    Do people actually believe this? I have a 350 and it upconverts standard DVDs very nicely--but in high definition???

    What can be done to prevent this kind of misinformation?

    They must be deluded since they also are listing the price (on their website) at $400, a full 100 more than everybody else.
    I know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

    Buy one and then sue them for false advertising.
