Anybody can guide me with the following questions ?
1) Best investment for a 32 inch Full HD 1080p LCD ?
2) Best investment for a 32 inch HD Ready LCD ?
3) Best investment for a 40/42 inch Full HD LCD / Plasma ?
4) Best investment for a 40/42 inch HD Ready LCD / Plasma ?
My viewing distance 8 ft - 10 ft
Currently Pionner HDMI DVD player with upscale function with Samsung 32" S81 LCD ... only can run 480p max
Thinking of upgrade TV and then BluRay later ...
Thanks for the help and guides !

Just my personal peasant opinion smile.gif

1) Panasonic 32LZ800 (expensive) / Samsung 32A650 (cheaper)
2) Sharp 32D30 (good blend of PQ, design, sound)
3) Panasonic 42PY800 plasma
4) Panasonic 42PV80 plasma (the LYN champion!) / Pioneer Kuro 428 (best TV you can buy)

Thank you so much for your recommendations and time.

So many models with so many specs and with so tempting prices ...
I'm looking for a Full HD LCD too, but really can't decide on a 32" or 37" ... aargh ...
Samsung 5 series 32" around $2700 and Panasonic 37" at $3599 ... PLS HELP !
Any anymore tempting recommendations ? LG, Sony, Pioneer ...
Or this -> Phillips 42" (Full HD or juz HD Ready ?) 42PFL7432/98 @ $3699 ?

I reckon you need to consider 40 inches and above to enjoy the REAL benefits of going FULL HD. Otherwise, you would be disappointed with your Full HD investment.

But most 40" or above LCD / Plasma above $4k woh ...
Any recommendations ?

pv8 is nicer although compare wif full hd 550...

PV8 just HD Ready right ?
It's kinda odd to buy a HD ready panel NOW when Full HD is already flushing the market ...
Makes me headache to choose ...
I always read about PV8, PV80, PV80H ... actually which is the correct model, pls ?
TQ !
