If you have a big budget go for an LED LCD. I've heard the best one currently is the Sony followed by Samsung.

For a smaller budget check out the Samsung 650 or 750 models which have 120 hz. Some don't like this option and some love it. I like it.

For about $500 or so less get a regular 1080p set.

Check out the Samsung 500 series's or the Sony's and Sharps. Other choices would be Toshiba and LG, but I'd steer clear of the no name brands.

I'd go and wander around a big box store to see what you like but the smaller stores may have their models set up better.

I'd go for as big a screen as possible and the closer you sit, go for a 1080p over a 720p although the 720p or 1080i are cheaper.

Also look for sales and if no sale don't be afraid to bargain. Don't buy your cables at a big box store, a component cable is all you need to start and you can order cables at monoprice very cheap.
