I found this 32 inch Full HD tv by samsung over the internet, LN32A550P if I'm not mistaken. Anything to say about this model?
Save ur money and get the 720p. Didn't you read all the post above? (Just joking)
Based on our fellow forumers: "Nobody can tell the difference between 1080p & 720p for 50" below." & "Nobody will sit so close to a TV to be able to tell the difference". But seriously I've been to Best denki, Sony Stores, Harvey Normans, but I really dunno what resolution demos they use so I cannot make comments whether 1080p is worth it or not below 50". It would be best if you can go to individual shops and ask them to play 1080p & 720p together (on the same size TV) and see for yourself.
Hope Toshiba will release their Regza 32" FULL HD TV soon over here, they are selling it in US for merely USD999, cheaper than those 720p Sonies. It would be a good idea to wait a month or two as I believe makers are starting to release 1080p on 32" LCD and hopefully 720p will be replaced.
Follow what your feeling tells you. If you can afford the additional few hundreds to get Full HD, get it. I'm sure even at a Pityful 32" you will be able to tell the difference, just remember to sit close enough.
HD TVs are meant to be watch closer than conventional TVs so you can experience the details. If you plan on sitting far away like you used to, you don't even need HD TV, CRT TV are good enough in terms of details and you don't need to stretch your RTM1,2,3 & Astro so they look fat.
That's my conclusion after few days of searching and debating. The rest is up to Hands-On Visual Inspection haha. But 1st need to find a shop that i can do that...
