HD LCD 26 inches -- Best buy: price and brand? Optimal viewing distance: 1080p vs. 720p?
Need to know today! Mom's old GE finally terminated (excellent quality throughout it's whole lifetime--22 yrs) and I want to replace it with a new HD tv. I've checked with consumers report and various on-line guides but the information (other than cs' recomendation on Sanyo's DP26649) just does not seem complete since there are no charts/comparisons which I can reference against the info on the Sanyo set... one more problem I have is distrust of unfamiliar brands (my experience has been limited to non-hds from Zenith, GE, and Philips--bad experiences with Sharp and RCA). After reading through the various guides I still do not know if 1080p or 720p, 26" or less, is the correct purchase (bright room, viewing distance of about 78" @ zero angle) for a dear and modest lady.

Thank you for your prompt assistance!

At 26 inches, save your money and go with 720p , you
wont see any difference between 720p and 1080p on a
small TV like that. I would recommend 1080 around after
46 inches or maybe a little around 42inches.
