I have a 37in CRT type Panasonic, and a 52in CRT rear projection Sony.  Both 
are pretty new.  Both claim to accept 1080i.  

The Sony is happy with 720p from the 6600Gt.  The Sony displays 1080i from its 
internal tuner just fine.  

The Panasonic can do 540p but not 720p. The Panasonic was supposed to be 
driven from my HD-3000 based PVR, but I never got the tuner to work with over 
the air signals.  I find 540p to be useless for anything but standard def TV.
