At that size and distance, I would save money and get a 720p set.

yes and I'm willing to bet that many people in this section of the forum also have a TV too small for their viewing distance to be getting the most out of their TV's for where they sit because they spent the extra cash on a higher end smaller TV and are now sitting so far away they might as well have a 720p set

Which, frito and sharkcohen, gets us back to the original concept of this thread. I wanted a 32" and was not going to go any bigger, regardless of viewing distance. So, the question is whether getting a 1080p set was worth any extra expense, since the resolution itself would not be noticeable at my distance.
The answer can definitely be yes, depending on how much of a premium you are paying. I paid only a slight premium and I believe I got value for that extra. The picture quality IS better, whether it is just better components, black levels, contrast, refresh, etc. Whatever the reason, my picture is better than my very good LG 720p. And, I feel as if I have a product that is simply higher quality and will hold up longer than my LG did (problems after 2 years).

yes but this finer detail is only advantageous if 2 things are met
#1 you sit close enough to the TV for its size in order to be able to see the most detail in the image
#2 the material you are viewing is high quality enough to display a full 1080p resolution and from the 50 or so BD's and HD-DVD's i own and have watched every on a 32" 1080p sitting only 2-3 feet away so i can easily see all of the detail in the picture. only a hand full of movies and really only 1 that i have stands out as having what i would consider a near perfect picture and that would be the IMAX scenes in the dark knight they are extremely high quality
