How do you pick a TV?

There are so many options.....

I've decided that it's either the Sony Bravia, Sharp Aquos or Vizio. I'm thinking 1080p at 32". That said, I can't decide which brand, or if I should pick Best Buy because of the service plan. Any thoughts?

And you haven't consulted your local audio/video guru yet?? How disheartening!

The Sony's are very good. The Sharp's are pretty good. The Vizio's may look OK, but have no track record whatsoever, and are simply a screen made by someone else but with their own name on it. Don't do it, no matter what the cost.

And although the service plan may seem nice, think of it this way. We have over 30 plasmas and LCD at our office that are above 30". They all get beat to hell, and rarely do any of them have problems. So unless you plan on damaging it yourself, the service plan really isn't necessary.

And when the website says that it's not Digital Cable ready?

Technically speaking, no TV is digital CABLE ready. Cable services require a box from the cable company. Now if it's digital TV ready, that's a different question. And according to the Sony website, all of their TV's are DTV-ready.

There's a smashing good deal on a 720 p Aquos.....

Circuit City is liquidating EVERYTHING.... it might be too late, but take a look there and see if you find something there you like. We just picked up a 26" this weekend!
