"For the Vizio VP505XVT, it is said that "the processor can also upscale standard definition images to full 1080p". What does that mean? Does that mean that when ever I watch TV in standard definition that the picture quality qill automatically be upgraded to 1080P?"

The TV processes the signal changing it to 1080p, this improves picture quality but it's not as good as a true 1080p source.

On a 1080p TV you have 1920x1080 pixels that make up the image, with out upscaling the image is basically just blown up and lacks detail. Upscaling converts the signal to 1080p and tries to preserve image quality.

For example:

DVD is 480p
Blu-ray is 1080p

upscaling the 480p dvd signal to 1080p will make it look better then not upscaling. But it will never look as good as the blu-ray.
