Some clues can be found here:

I think as an example PBS will be offering 1080i content with a 480i fallback stream for SDTVs, but I suspect you are going to see different resolutions on different programs.

I am glad they are at least considering having a fallback NTSC stream. HD scaled down to SD is so hard to read.
