Need help pick HDTV

I live in Houston and was thinking of going to the Super Bowl but after seeing what it will cost for tickets I am thinking I would be better off to spend the money upgrading my TV and watching it from home.


I have the following HT setup:
NHT Superones
NHT Super Center
NHT SW 10
Harman Kardon AVR525
Direct Tivo
JVC XV-SA600 region free DVD player
and a crappy proscan 32 inch TV

I need help picking a good HDTV in the 40-50 something inch size range. I dont want Plasma but I am open to any other suggestions.

Thanks

I just picked up the new Sony Grand Wega III 42" LCD and I'm very happy with it.

Two questions?

What is your budget and how do you plan to receive the HDTV signal?

I am hoping to keep it under 3K.

I wont be able to get HDTV through the Direct TV until I upgrade my receiver so i will be basically using it for XBox and DVD's for a while.

Here is a good website for some comparisons.

Personally I would never buy a TV that I could not see first. I would try some local retailers in your area and begin making a short list based on your budget as there appear to be a number of choices in your range.
