Samsung LN-S2651D 26 in. TV

I have been looking for an HDTV for quite sometime now and cut down my decision between two brands, Sony and Samsung. After ALOT (over 200 hours) of research and actually testing out all of there TV's they had to offer, I made my decision... The Samsung LN-S2651D was the perfect fit for me! Big enough to enjoy an amazing HDTV experience in a medium sized bedroom and just the right size to fit a large computer desk or video gaming setup. Don't get me wrong, Sony is a great company and thier TV's are made with high quality and precision. The factor that helped me decide was the Samsung had basically the same or better quality picture than the Sony at a lower price! Granted the sound of the Samsung was not as good as the Sony, but honestly WHO CARES! I hooked up a surround sound system to my LN-S2651D with the money I saved from not buying the Sony and now I have the best quality picture and sound possible short of a 1080P television. I do recommend, however, that you purchase a 1080P Samsung if you have the money. If not, do what I'm doing. I'm gonna hold off until 1080P televisions are alittle lower in price. Right now they are just way to high and not to much of a HUGE drastic change over the 1080i where I feel I need it now. You can find a Samsung LN-S2651D on eBay anywhere from $450-$700. Trust me, alot of great deals are popping up on these amazing TVs right now, just be aware of feedback and make sure the seller is reputable before buying. If you'd like a TV with alittle more size I would go for the LN-S3251D which is the 32" version of this wonderful TV. Here are some of the amazing specs that keep this TV above the competition:
