There are 4 HD standards in use:
720i (1280x720 pixels interlaced)
720p (1280x720 pixels progressive)
1080i (1920x1080 pixels interlaced)
1080p (1920x1080 pixels progressive)

Interlaced means it updates only half the lines at each update, progressive updates all lines.

Full HD term is used for monitors/TVs that have at least 1920x1080 pixels and support 1080p. Full HD works on PS3, Blueray and HD-DVD. Pretty nice with a computer connected aswell.
