I haven't kept up on these things for a while and I'm wondering what would be some good options for 1080p 42" screens that will do well with a PS3?

I am also looking for a 1080p screen which I will be purchasing on christmas and after going to various stores (best buy, circuit city, frys) i liked the picture quality of samsung. I dont remember the exact model but it was a 42" dlp that was capable of 1080p. I compared it to similar models from sony, toshiba, panasonic, and westinghouse and the samsung just blew them out of the water. Colors were very vivid. Price wasnt that bad either at around $1600. I would recommend going to the stores and check out the different brands side by side.

if your buying it for a ps3 then I would get a DLP. If you plan to use it as your pc monitor as well then get a LCD. Perhaps one of the Westinghouse 42" 1080Ps.
