I have two friends with Vizios and they are all very pleased. They are well known for having great quality for the price they charge.

I tend to do ALOT of research before I buy somthing, but I can tell you this, for a 32" TV you don't really need to worry about going over 720 P I have a Sony KLV-S32A10 and mine does a max of 1080i and in all honesty it does not matter if I am gaming, viewing my Media Center PC on it, or Watching a blue ray movie, I can not tell the diff between 720p and 1080i at all.

Only other thing is my Uncle just bought the 40" ( i think its 40 ) version of this TV, and he loves it so far and has zero complaints, but before then I had never even heard of this brand before, so be warned cause I think they are fairly new ( unless I am just uninformed of the company's history ) And were ever you buy it from, make sure that you get a warrenty with it, so if somthing does go wrong, you don't have to worry about getting it replaced or fixed.

Do you have a link for it ?

What type of connections does it have ? and does it have the connections you need ? ( are you hooking it up to a Home theater type setup ? or just using the TV's speakers ? )

Stuff like that you need to make sure off also before you take the plunge.

O and I hope you are buying this size TV based on the room your putting it in :P

thats all I can think off im tired :(

i recently upgraded from Standard deffinition to high deffinition. i looked all over for the best deal on an HDTV. i eventually gave up and found a better alternative.

i now have a 21.6 inch Samsung monitor.

3000:1 contrast ratio, 1 VGA port, 1 DVI port, 5ms refresh rate.

only cost me $250.

to put it into perspective... a 23 inch Samsung HDTV with 4000:1 contrast ratio was $750.

i'm happy with my purchase, considering it saved $400.

so i guess what i'm saying is consider a monitor, but if you want something bigger than 25 inches you might just have to go HDTV.

my friend has a Visio, he's very satisfied with it. Gears looks awesome on it. I went for a more conservative $400 26inch Insignia at 720p.

I own it. Great tv on a budget. Much better than standard def for gaming. Looks good on cable as well.

People will tell you to get a name brand with better specs in a smaller size, but I would advise against that. The size makes the difference. You won't notice the small differences between this tv and a better one unless they are side by side. As it is, I choose a much bigger screen that I can also use as a nice TV.

Vizio 32" LCD TV

Now there is no excuse for you to not own a flat screen. The Vizio Looks really expensive, but it's actually affordable and The best part is that girls won't know the difference. What am I a television salesman? Gross.

You never buy a TV just on what size you want it to be, you buy it based on the room you are putting it in :P

I have a friend that bought this TV : http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7997297&st=sony+HDTV&lp=9&type=product&cp=1&id=1158317794104

And his couch is like 4 feet away from the tv.... when you watch a movie its like your in the very first row of the movie theater, and you have to turn your head to see it all... And his reason for doing it, cause he's damn near blind and needs glasses so bad, but he won't go and get them, so he got this big *** TV so that he could see it :( such a waste of money its not even funny, and his wife gets neck cramps from watching tv now :lol:
