even without full HD most reviews say the images look awesome. I would only go full HD if buying above 32" or 37" because it is almost standard then.

Now I know less then I knew a couple of days ago... Now LG also came into the picture and I am thinking I don't need the Full HD LCD (it's almost double the money, and I don't have anything to watch/play on it).. Well, maybe if I can find a cheaper full HD I'll buy it, but I KNOW I DONT NEED IT...

Now I am considering:

LG 37LF65 LCD, 94 cm, FULL HD 1920x1080p - $1760

LG 37LE2R LCD, 94 cm, HD Ready, 1366x768p - $1340

LG 37LC2RR LCD, 94 cm, 1366X768, HDD 80 GB - $1500

Philips 37 PFL 3312, 94cm, LCD HD ready, 1366x768p - $1260

Sharp LC 37SD1E, LCD, 94 cm, HD ready, 1366 x 768p - $1774

Sony KDL-40U2000 BRAVIA, 101cm, LCD, HD ready, 1366x768p - $1560

Sry.. just needed a list... I'll probably buy one today... so we'll see what the cat brings..

I bought it...

I decided on it pretty quickly once I was in the shop..

It's: PHILIPS 42 PFL7532D -

I just finished setting it up with channels and have to just rearrange them all to my liking and read the manual for some hidden content..

I must say that I am very happy how it looks and what kind of picture it gives out on SD signal. I also noticed that it found 4 digital channels which have great picture..

Oh yea.. While I was at it, I bought the last NINTENDO WII in the shop.. lol.. gotta set it up also and try out the "sports" package it came with..

Price Nintendo Wii: $440
Price Philips LCD: $1440
Total price: $1880
