Happy with Panny DMP-BD55 for all the wrong reasons

I realise my display (6 year old Sony LCD RPTV with 760p native resolution) is the limiting factor but this Panny BD player makes good looking DVD's look GREAT when scaled to 1080i. I have still only watched 1 BD title, Iron Man and was not blown away by the picture. Waiting for those BD Xmas presents. Stars Wars DVD's and some music/performance DVD's look GREAT thru the Panny. The scaled DVD's look much better thru it than my Marantz DV9500 that at one time cost around $2K. Now I have a quandry about whether to crack the seal on a SuperBit and BD copies of 5th Element to do a comparison.
