Which LCD 27'' or 30'' or 32''

Jun 26, 2005 11:44AM PDT

I would like any feedback on deciding which brand to buy... I noticed Syntax Olevia has probably the best warranty since it offers one year of onsite warranty.
The Syntax models I am looking at are the Olevia Syntax LT27HV and the Syntax LT27HVS (these are $699.99 and $799.99 after rebates)

The other brands I am looking at are Proview (Costco.com) and Sceptre (Costco.com). These two brands have the same one year warranty but no onsite- but I guess it doesnt matter since I believe Costco
will have a very liberal return policy- which can last
for years- correct me if I am wrong. The Sceptre is a 30" and the Proview is a 32" LCD TV.

I would appreciate any assistance in deciding which LCD TV to buy.

I want to keep the total cost excluding taxes under $899.99 and all three of these do this as of today.

I live in the Los Angeles, CA area.

Costco has this until 07/10/05 for $899.00 after rebate. We're going to take a close look at it for quality. While the price seems right, we want good colors and don't want it to break after a short time, Costco return policy notwithstanding.

Cheers.
