Recommend LCD / plasma TV ?

I've been looking at 26" LCD TV's. Can anyone recommend a reliable brand with a good quality picture?
The salesman recommended Samsung or Phillips. They also carry Polaroid, Sony, Panasonic, and Magnavox. All seen to have the same 1,300 x 780 resolution, even the 32" have the same resolution.

i have been very satisfied with a samsung 32 inch lcd tv. you may need to experiment with line cords and a power conditioner to get the most of your tv. it is also important to provide a quality interface between cable or satellite receiver and tv. hdmi is best. otherwise consider component interface.

After researching 40" LCD's, I'd say stick with the Sony. Don't get too caught up in looking at the picture in the store....unless they have been calibrated correctly. That will make or break a TV.

elizabeth makes a great point - I bought a pioneer elite partly because it had the best non high def picture - some of the others were really horrible. Also I mostly watch sports and when it gets busy the elite had less of the distortion. If you are spending good money make sure you get what you want even if it costs alittle more
