Thoughts?
It looks good, for it's price, on Amazon for 599$ with free Prime shipping, I could have it hear Wednesday - It would be replacing a 27'' RCA TruFlat TV...thing, which has had muffled sound and fuzzy picture since I got it in 2005, but it was a gift...so...yeah.
Anyways, I originally was going to say, go for a 32'' for around the 400$ mark. I'd mainly be watching light TV on this, maybe my PS3 games, I don't think to many movies, as I have a 50'' Plasma for that...I infact do not watch much TV in my room and 600$ feels like a lot for something I don't use to often, but I find myself annoyed, at times, that I cannot play my PS3 games during the night, which is when I am up, as I work nights, and on my days off, I sleep all day, and obviously, am up all night...and well, can't really play on my 5.1 surround sound system on the Plasma in the middle of the night, not at enjoyable levels, with my room mate right next to the living room.(Me being in the upstairs portion)
As I said, I wanted 32'', but several users have said my sitting distance of 5-6, possible 7 feet(My bed, or compute r chair), would make it to small and I'd need at least 37'', a very rare size to find, I've found, you can find them, but not many good ones, for enjoyable TV and whatnot.
Still, I just got my check and I find that 600$ awesome looking TV, thinking I could have it here, tomorrow, so enticing.

Originally I would just have used my computer monitor for my PS3 games; while this does work, I tested it, my PC monitor is 24'', 16:10, it does not have a 1:1 mode...hence, no black bars are possible, only stretch...and abit of fuzz, making games most unenjoyable. Everything is tall and thin, with warped text.
What are your A/Vphile thoughts on this TV? Situation?
