For screens over 40" you are best off looking for Full HD capable tvs (1080p) like:

Is that Samsung any good?

Good couple of hundred cheaper than the equivalent sony.
Are you sure the makro one isn't the confusing '3 lcd' rear projection set?

I have the F71 (it's short lived predecessor) and it's awesome (comparable to a W2000 etc). The M87 I assume must be LED backlit with that contrast ratio and at least as good surely...

If it's led backlit I might just have to buy it.

I'll have a look on avforums.
