The Sony Bravia line is an excellent choice. Very clear and crisp picture. I picked up a 42-inch Bravia for $800 on Black Friday.

Edit: I should note that the 42” models usually sell for around $1,000, which is still in your price range.

I love my 2 Samsung ToC’s.

First decision is Plasma or LCD. Gamers choose Plasma. If your TV will have a glare on it from the sun the go with LCD. Everything else is miostly semantics. Pick the size and color you want.

I would probably go with a name brand though. Gonna spend the money anyway so I wouldn’t risk it with an off brand.

I agree with Sakata. Go with the Samsung touch of color lcd if you can afford it. I bought an LN52A750 in August and the picture on it is amazing. It has 1080P resolution and the 120hz refresh rate. My friend just bought a Panasonic 50” plasma that is awesome too. Either one of these brands make awesome flat screen TV’s.
