This has already been done.  I recall almost a year ago seeing ads
from Toshiba (of Soviet subs fame) talking about the first REAL use
of digital circuitry in TVs, to do something other than put another
picture in the corner or posterize your picture.  It was only
available in a 26 inch model, as I recall.  If Toshiba can do it, I
would expect to see a lot of other manufacturers incorporating such
a beast in the next year or so....
