Provided you get a player that has a better deinterlacer and/or scaler than the PJ, you should see some improvement in picture quality. By the way, I did a Google search on your PJ and I could only find information that said it had composite, S-video and component connections -- no HDMI. Perhaps I got the model number wrong.

Not sure why that did not pop up. The new PT-AE200U has two HDMI inputs, the PT-AE100U that I have has but one. When the machine first powers up, the screen actually shows graphics of all the connectors available on screen, HDMI, composite, component, SVideo as well as which one its currently getting its signal from. At the moment I have the player setup rigged to play VHS tapes through the first composite and DVD's through the component ports from the Toshiba combo player. By resetting my audio receiver I can also play DVD's through the composite port, but the component port is vastly superior. Then I have a second projector, my Mitsubishi Colorview HC3 running into its SVideo port from the Toshiba player, and I have been able to make some interesting comparisons between the two projectors and the various signals. The Mitsubishi, despite its 1/4 HD resolution, actually does very well on the SVideo connector.
The two HDMI connector design on the 200 model would make it possible to have both a BR and HD player connected w/o the need for an outboard switcher. But I can even see the need for 3, one for standard DVD running upconverted. The 200 is readily available on line for about $1300.
