Hi
I'm in the market for a 27" TV.
there are only 3 brands of HDTVs i could find in the 27" size.
I would be interested in more opinions on hdtv's from people around here also. Due to room size and financial limits I cant afford anything larger than a 27"-30" tv.

I looked at a non-hdtv ( a 27" wega) but wasnt impressed. To tell you the truth, looking at a 27" and a 24" wega side by side, i got the feeling that for regular (non-HD) tv the larger 27" is actually a bit more grainier than the 24". the 24" looks much smoother. my uncle has a 60" rear projection that looks fantastic on HDTV but during regular broadcasts its pretty frightning. my personal feeling is that larger is not better. i prefer smoother.

Its a pretty solid argument to go for a HDTV but is there anything out there that can be had in a smaller size?
I'm thinking of buying a 24"wega for now and holding that for 2 yrs till some more choises appear in the 27" hdtv line.
