I'm inclined to buy a 37V5500 (the size is right for my room, and it has the right mix of features for my needs and my budget (Applicast, USB, 4HDMI etc). I've never yet been impressed by 100Hz models. My remaining concern is about the panel. It seems that all the other panels in the V5500 range are S-PVA made by the joint Sony/Samsung venture. The 37" is apparently a A-MVA from the Taiwanese producer AUO which seems to have a (slightly) poorer reputation - the contrast figures quoted are a little lower than for the others. I was so impressed by the 32W4000 that I'd hate to be disappointed by the 37V5500.

I guess I need to wait and see an example in the shops, or a review in one of the magazines. Chrisgeo has expressed the view that the 37" will be OK. Are there any other views out there from other insiders? Anybody seen any user reviews?
