unless you are too particularly favorable to crt PQ, get a Plasma. As oders mentioned above, you should get 32" close 2 your budget. I would say Plasma first and then probably LED just in case you like jazzed-up pictures. Im not an expert but i wouldnt go for LCD wen plasma gives most accuarate PQ or LED for its sleek looks. Though not as accurate as Plasma, PQ on LED is pretty gud provided you chose a gud model. But in your budget, you will have 2 settle for a smaller size than what you get wid Plasma or LCD.
