I'll be buying a new set in the next month or so. something in the 42-46 inch screen size to replace are 32 inch RCA flat screen picture tube monster. what brands would you recommend i should be looking at. also one of my concern is glare as the TV will be placed across from my bay window that will get morning sun in. also i have a 6' wide side window that seems to get afternoon sunlight coming in. I'm planning on wall mounting the unit across from a 4'h x 5'w bay window that is facing east on the house.
the room size is about 12ft wide x 16ft long the tv will be 12 ft across from the bay window i spoke of. when you see them in the stores glare is not something you are aware of do to there lighting but it sure suck to get one home and fine out all you see is a thing that hanging on the wall and kind of looks like a picture frame :(
i know im going to buy a 1080 unit.
i hope this make sense to you guys.

We just bought a 65" TV, but I don't think it would fit your needs. Since it's a plasma set, it would be effected a lot by glare I think. On that note though, we love it. It's a Panasonic Viera 65" Plasma 600hz, and it's pretty awesome. Also fairly inexpensive for the size at $2100.

Many brands no longer make their own tvs, so that SONY might have the same parts as a Vizio

Sharp and Samsung are my choices if I would buy an LCD TV.

I still would pick a plasma TV over a LCD TV though. Panasonic is my 1st choice.

I have a Toshiba Regza as well. 32 inch or something I think, two of them actually. And they aren't too bad, but these aren't 1080P. Would only need that over 40+ so didn't spend the extra on these.

I just ordered a 47" Sharp from Dell which was listed here a few days ago. It's not the latest and greatest 1080p technology, but for $700 + tax I'm cool with the purchase.

I'm replacing my 36" JVC tube behemoth.


I also bought a 32" Vizio 1080p for the bedroom that I got for under $300 during the holiday timeframe during a 20% Bing cashback through Dell.
