In the Friday shopping frenzy I picked up this TV from walmart.

32" widescreen Symphonic LCD TV $599 (mine is black not gray)

doesn't do 1080i but 720p is plenty of HD for me. i'm replacing my bedroom TV with it.

supposedly they were pretty tough to grab but I was in Lawton, OK for Thanksgiving and we went around 1pm and they still had plenty. Anyhow I got it all hooked up, looks great. I know it's not some uber brand, but I know there's only a few people making the actual LCDs anyways so I bet it's a samsung or sony LCD anyways.

just thought I'd post in case anyone was looking for something like this

the difference between i and p is that p displays twice as many lines on the screen in a given cycle. progressive (p) makes sports, or fast moving video look much cleaner. which is why ESPNHD is in 720p, while stuff like discovery HD is in 1080i, displays a sharper picture because it doesn't have to change as rapidly. 1080p is the best of both worlds, but only on more recent TVs and i don't believe there's any channels broadcasting in it yet, only the blue ray & hddvd.
