I have the worst luck, the site claims that it is down temporarily. At any rate, for a PS3, you're going to want a high resolution TV, preferably one with 1080p. I'm not sure if they fixed this problem, but I remember that the original PS3's did not have RAMDACS for proper resolution change. They would've had to ship completely new PS3's in order to fix that one, since software probably couldn't do it as well. What this means is that you had an option between 1080p and 480i (not very great). At any rate, what I recommend doing is going into Best Buy/some related store and visually seeing the TV that is most comfortable to your eye, and picking that one (within price). Just remember that you'll probably want a 1080p resolution TV to look best with your PS3 (and an HDMI cable).

Going purely by the specs of the 37LG60 it would appear to be a fine choice of TV. It's got: 1920 x 1080 resolution for 1:1 pixel mapping (meaning no image scaling will be required with a 1080p source) HDMI input for Blu-Ray HDCP compliance (not to mention really nice picture quality) good contrast ratio, brightness, viewing angle and response time Just be sure to go to a store and get your eyes on it in person before buying one if you can.
