However I'm having a hard time deciding if I should get a 46 inch or 40 inch. I would much rather get the 46 inch however it would take me about 6 months to pay off. But I could get the 40 inch paid off in 3 months. Which one should I get? I spotted the Sony Bravia a few days ago and thought it would be perfect for my room.

The 40" is what caught my eye and had I not needed to someting closer to a 50" in size, the 40" was a complete blow away!Remember, the 40" is 1080p as well which means the pixel elements are smaller thereby resulting in a more focused viewing experience at typical view distances.Same pixel element count between both the 40" and the 46" - smaller is better on the 40. No disrespect to the 46" though - it blows away the Samsung units - hands down - mainly for the fact that the processing circuitry is far superior and faster. Plus this set has picture setting memories for each individual input - an absolute must! HD looks spectacular, Well mastered DVDs look damn close and composite feeds are cleaned up 10 times better than anything in it's class - including Pioneer Elite plasma sets which are totally over-rated. Sony states everything is up-converted to 1080p rez and it certainly appears to be the case. No burn, very minimal blur (on SD feeds), gobbs of user adjustable settings and stupendous blacks/contrast. There's plenty of margin in this set so work the salesperson; 10% off list is an easy achievement. Also, blow off any attempt to sell you an extended warranty; you can get one directly from Sony after the fact. Just over $300 for 5 years, coverage is good and in-home service is part of the deal. Why pay upwards of $900.00 from someone else; spend that money on other stuff... I bought one of these 2 weeks ago. The 40″ is what caught my eye

Does it have a swivel stand? I’ve been looking for a 40-46″ LCD, preferably with 1080p, and this unit sounds like it would fit the bill.
