Actually, 1080p is Full HD because for consumer devices, 1080p 24 frames/second playback is what you get from a Blu-ray player. We forget that broadcast HD in the USA is only in 1080i and 720p formats.

Blu-ray is just another in a series of high definition consumer devices and as such doesn’t define high definition. After all devices used to be a max of 720 and that didn’t define “full HD”. The term “full HD” is just marketing.
