Blu Ray connectability HDMI / Component

Hi - I've been trying to decide whether or not to make the jumpt to Blu Ray now that Denon has produced a good Blu Ray / DVD player.

I'm concerned though - my display, a Pioneer Elite Pro 610, I think, a 58" rear projection (5 years young) doesn't have an HDMI input.

Is my understanding correct that one can only see HD from these players through HDMI? If so, I'd need a new display, new receiver with switching and a new source.

If that's so, I'll stick to DVD.

To get the best picture you'll need the hdmi...and wait on the blue ray anyway, Sony is coming out with new models as is everyone else and they'll be cheaper to boot.

Go with an Oppo, great picture, and with the 980 you'll get decent sound as well.
