Default 32" TV Help!

So my old LG 32" LCD broke. It won't turn on anymore. I know never to get a bad TV like that.

Now I have about 3 choices to make. I don't really need anything bigger than 32". I also don't really need 1080P because I won't be using anything in that resolution (PS2, 360, Digital Cable) unless you really do recommend it.

Now here are my options. I can only get it at Future Shop because I don't usually order online (I'm still a teenager, lolz) and my parents prefer buying it locally in a retail store.

First is the Samsung 32" LCD 720P

Second is the Sharp 32" LCD 720P
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0099399&catid=

And last but not least, the Sony 32" LCD
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0091835&catid=

Which one would you think would have the better picture quality, faster response times, etc?

This Sharp Aquos 32" is 1080i capable as well as 720p.

Edit: nevermind you already have it listed . In that case I would go with the Samsung. It's the best "bang for your buck" out of the three. It's capable of the highest picture quality.

A 32" LCD that does 1080p for $400???

Please... you have to submit a LINK for that one. Are you sure it does 1080p? 720p TVs that size are hard enough to find, but one that does 1080p in that price range is dayuum near impossible. Seriously, please verify this.

I bought a OLEVIA 32" from Circuit City for $499... but it only does 720p and even that was a "sale price".


Please give us more details on which television this is. Thanks.
