I'm another fan of the Oppo 83

I've had several hi-rez players including 2 Toshiba top-of-the-line HD DVD players that upscaled to 1080P; each had one of the 2 highest-quality uprezing chips. I view on a large screen, and I've seen no difference in the results of uprezing DVDs from the different players.

I see HUGE differences in the video quality of uprezed DVDs, and I think the earlier the DVD release, the worse the resulting image is. Some uprezed DVDs...I can think of 'Outland', one of my favorite Sean Connery movies...looked so bad I gave the DVD away. 'Star Trek--Enterprise' looks excellent uprezed. The vast majority of DVDs look better uprezed to 1080P than in 480i or 480P.
