Are there any 36" Flat Screen HDTV worth having (1 Viewer)

[Cory O]

I've been looking into the 36" Flat Screen HDTV capable TV's right now to upgrade from my 27". I'm not interested in widescreen but would like a picture big enought to handle the black bars with 16:9 compression. I've looked at the Panasonics, Hitachi's, and Sonys. I hear good and bad things about all of these sets. I have digital cable and spend about 85% of my time watching cable, 15% DVD. It doesn't sound like the flat screen HDTV Tube market right now is the best route to go? Is this the case?

Well considering that for the price of a 36" set like this, you can get a 47" range RPTV ...

All display devices have their own issues. The flat tubes suffer from geometry problems that typically cannot be fixed or discoloration in some of the corners.
