Any performance differences will be marginal on an NTSC set; yes, you might be able to see them--but once you see a set capable of even 480p, you'll realize that's where you should spend your money. When you read the mag review's, keep in mind that they are comparing DVD video quality using high-resolution display devices.So, on that basis, I'd buy the cheapest damned player I could find, and save my money for a better display.
Another option: purchase a home theater capable PC. The video from this will be quite superior (on a high-definition display) to any standalone DVD player. Why? Well, the line-doubling, trebling, quadrupling (all software selectable) is done in the digital domain, prior to conversion to analog...even progressive scan DVD players do the doubling in the analog domain.
Additionally, with a good HTPC, you can setup custom scan rates that will help you take advantage of your current display, as well as future displays.
The little voices told me to stop listening.
