I agree with Joe. Though admittedly seeing the diff between 720p and 1080i/p at 12-15' with 42" will be almost impossible...even seeing the diff between 480p would be close.
I'm sure I don't have to tell you how no scaling will never come close to matching native resolution (1080p/i) from BD displayed at native resolution. At a close distance. But if your sources have already been manipulated (streaming) then it doesn't matter much. Also, keep in mind that sources (players) typically scale much better than any display, even "crappy" BD players vs very good displays.
I am kind of surprised that 720p 42" displays are still available. Probably won't be any left next year at this time. Any price diff between 720p and 1080p at this time in that size is purely marketing, there's no technical reason for it. I can see 720p in a 19" screen say, I mean you don't expect to see "much" with those...
