Help picking new tv - Blu-ray Forum

Is there any decent tv out there at least 32" full 1080p and runs at 120hz that is under $800? thanks for the help.

Do you need 1080p? At 32" you will most likely see no difference between 720p and 1080p unless you are sitting closer than 5 feet from the set. You can save a ton of money and get a better quality TV. I picked up a 42 inch Panny plasma 720p for $699 on Black Friday and Blu-Ray looks great on it.

+1 you may want to look into the Plasma world as you will get A LOT of TV for under $900

Do they even have 120hz 32'' displays? The smallest I recall seeing is 40''.

Here is a Panasonic 720p plasma for $599, I think that would outclass the 32" 1080p you are looking for.
