I'm looking at getting a full hd, 32 inch LCD and am not sure whether I'm best to get a Samsung LA32A550D or Sony KDL32V4000. Would appreciate some advise. Thanks

Just bought the Sony myself. Very nice picture, great connectivity, for me, and good size (of course I was only upgrading from a 20" tele).

I used the info at this site (http://reviews.lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtvreviews/sony-kdl40xbr4-review.shtml) to tune the picture and I have no complaints!

I bought on-line from Playtech (because they take Visa) but even so it was $500 less than DSE or NL.

I think you crazy buying a full HD 32", you can't really appreciate 1920x1080 with normal TV viewing distances on such a small TV. Save your money, and get an 'HD Ready' 32" or go bigger.
