    Does Dell U3011 deinterlace 1080i to 1080p?

    I don't know if this question has been asked before but I am surprised that I cannot find any information on this topic in any U3011 reviews posted online. Does anyone know if U3011 deinterlace 1080i? And how well does it display 1080i video? Thanks.
