I would say to invest the cash in Avia or DVE, but don't bother with ISF. The discs will get you close enough and ISF is really only going to show benefits in a true theater setup (controlled lighting, ideal viewing, room setup, etc).
I've used Avia and DVE. I have a new one that's specifically for LCD's that I'm going to try too. It's fairly straight forward.

With HD-DVD Prices down to ~$200 for the player (with 7 free HD movies), I wouldn't be surprised to see HD gaining more traction.
The media attention makes the general public think that HD-DVD is the loser format already though which doesn't help.

That used to mean something till Netflix started gouging everyone's share in the market.
Just remember Blockbuster stocked UMD's too. Also if I remember correctly you could get laser disks there too,

Wheres that offer at John?
Best deal I can find right now is from Costco for $249.99 for the player plus 5 Free HD-DVDs. Its for the Toshiba HD-D2 model ( same as the HD-A2, but includes a free HDMI cable).
There was another company offering better but I can't find the link right now.
