Samsung LNS3251D 32-Inch LCD HDTV
Stunning picture
You will be glued to this TV!  I just got my Monster Ultra800 HDMI cable yesterday and even though I'm a Monster skeptic, I got a great deal and the picture is a little better than the components I had hooked up.  Whites are awesome, blacks are stunning and the best I've seen...the 4000:1 contrast ratio is one the of the best out there.  SD is surprisingly good and HD is as close to perfect as you're gonna get, to the point where I find myself watching random shows on HD such as \\"Carribean Escapes\\" because the picture is so amazing.  I have seen the Sony XBR's and I have to say that I can't notice any difference...the Samsung is just as good for much less $$.  I can't comment on DVD or XBOX because I haven't used either with this TV yet....but this is one of the best LCD sets I have ever seen.  I bought the lns3241d at Circuit City initially then saw the top of the line version lns3251d for less $$ so I took it back and exchanged it for the 51.  If you do buy from a Circuit City, Best Buy, etc. make sure you talk them down.  This was selling for 1700 at CC and when I took my first set back they didn't want to lose my business and gave me the better one for around 1350-at cost (supposedly).  Take in some comparison prices from Amazon and Pricegrabber and save yourself $400 or so...although the price right now on Amazon is unbeatable.
