Buy the largest set you can! I read that the main reason people have buyer's remorse when they purchase a new tv is because they didn't buy a bigger set. We started out with a 40" Sony LCD in our courtyard villa livingroom and within 2 years "graduated" to a 55" Samsung LED. The picture is absolutely stunning in HD. We sit about 10 feet from it. We hooked up a wireless Sony surround system and when we "crank it" it is almost as good as the movies! The Florida room is home to a Samsung 32" LCD and we bought a 24" Dynex LCD for the kitchen. Using the Comcast adapter and an A/B switch we bought at Wal-mart we are able to get quite a few channels on that tv in HD. I only really watch the news from Orlando and I can get all of those channels in HD. (no HD box, just the set-up I described above)

LED sets run cooler than LCDs.
