Really?I seem to recall that there were a bunch of 1080i displays sold earlier in the transition. And there were the relatively short lived interlaced plasma displays using illumination of alternating surfaces...
But you are correct - progressive display was the first area where interlace disappeared from professional broadcast gear. Can't say the same about the rest of the station infrastructure.
And for the record I am not aware of professional products that simply scaled fields as Bert suggested. Something to do with the spatio/temporal mixing of information in the fields...
