FYI, many of the film-recorded tv programs are essentially 1080p because they are recorded at 24fps and then are telecined into 60 interlaced fields per second. So long as the TV has a good deinterlacer with good 3:2 pulldown, 1080i essentially becomes 1080p.

ATSC (US HDTV) does have a provision for 30fps and 24fps 1080p broadcasts, but nobody is using them right now.
