I am slowly building some of my other components up to the capability of my HDTV. Currently I have a SVHS doing the tv tuner duties of my digital cable box (no hdtv in my area yet from the cable company).. I have a strv555es reciever that does component switching. I'm considering this line doubler.

Although the specs on your tv indicate that it can display a progressive picture, it is limited to 550 lines of resolution, which I think means it tops out at 480p (although it can evidently scale 720p and 1080i). In any event, if it can display progressive signals natively then it has a deinterlacer ("line doubler") built in. I doubt that you will get a better deinterlacer for less than $100 than the one that you already have, so I'd keep saving until you can spring for the DVDO or something else that does more than simply deinterlace.
