Faroudja with Toshiba 36HF73

I just purchased my first HDTV, the Toshiba 36HF73, and am looking at a Denon DVD player for its Faroudja deinterlacer. My TV displays natively in 1080i and 540p; the DVD outputs in 480i/p. I assume the best combination is 480p from the DVD and 540p on the TV. But my question is - given that the Tosh will have to scale the DVD signal one way or the other (can't display 480p natively), am I losing the benefit of the Faroudja processing? Should I just buy a $100 JVC progressive-scan and save some $$$?


Thanks,

Sean
