Hello.
To make a long story short, I've given up any hope of buying one of those big 47" LCD's for dirt cheap (something along the lines of Westinghouse) not due to price, but because I'm starting law school, and doing so in Manhattan. I don't know 100%, but I'm damn sure I won't be having much space in my dorm room.
So I walked through Best Buy just to eye-ball a decent size and it looks like I'm gonna have to go down all the way to 32". 1080p is a must for me and pretty much the only set I've found at 32" that has 1080p are two Sharp Aquos:
Sharp LC32D62U (I can get this for $1050 shipped from Abe's of Maine)
Sharp LC-32GP1U (This one is around $1250 online from various sources)
Has anyone had any experience with these sets?
My chief uses would be console gaming, DVD/Blu-Ray, and hooking up the PC. After doing a couple hours of research, the difference between the two seems to be minimal. The latter is hyped as a 'gaming' HDTV but even CNET says that's more of a superficial designation. I did notice that it has a DVI input while the first one doesn't, but I figured I could just get a DVI > HDMI connector to hook up my PC.
I guess I'm just looking for any type of experience or suggestions. Much appreciated!
