You would need fairly large black bars on all sides of the image to display the SD signal in its native resolution on any HD screen.

A 1080p screen should display the 425-line SD display better than a 720p screen, as the interpolation is trivial for the former. But unless you want to watch BlueRay video disks, you will find no 1080p content at the present. That will almost certainly change in the future.
