Unfortunately, I don't have any more detailed information.  Remember, 
this was a demo in a store.  They weren't trying to educate me, they 
were trying to sell me on it.

In fact, the TV had a built-in function to provide the higher refresh to 
one side, and play the standard picture on the other, so you could 
compare more easily.  But not one bit of information about how the 
intermediate frames were generated :(

I would assume a simple color interpolation, although other techniques 
are, of course, possible.
