I think right now, the only thing that is in 1080p are HD-DVDs or Blu ray discs.

One thing that was mentioned was buying a TV with a better scaler. I assume this has to do with how well a regular broadcast picture looks on an HD-TV. Some of the channels on my friend's TV looks like crap.
Yeah, that's the key. In Circuit City and Best Buy, all of their TVs are running Hi Def stuff -- but what does it look like with regular broadcasts? There are only a few stations that even offer HD, so you'd have to see what it looks like for 80% of your TV watching. And that's something the TV stores conveniently neglect to show us.
