Both 40 inches.

Primary purpose: PS3 gaming.

According to displaylag.com (using the Leo Bodnar lag tester) the EH5000 has 33ms input lag, and the WB600 29Ms input lag. I'm getting a PS3 slim tomorrow (used and cheap) and will primarily be gaming FPS. Are these TVs good enough? I figure input lag should be my primary concern. I really want to make sure I have a solid TV for gaming.

However, I can't seem to find a response time for either TV. Should I be concerned?

Is there anything else I should be considering for the TVs? I hear they both don't have great viewing angles, but I will be sitting directly in front of it. However, I may have friends over to game and am hoping we don't have to sit shoulder to shoulder in order to play.

I'm leaning towards the Sony. I'd really appreciate your replies. :)

One is a little more expensive than the other, but the price difference is negligible. Which TV should I get?

I don't think you'll notice the difference in lag, tbh, and we measured the Samsung H5000 at 29 milliseconds (Leo Bodnar also) anyhow. I wouldn't have thought pixel response would be a big issue with either but I've not seen a Sony W6. Certainly the H5000 was fine for me but if you can go demo somewhere, all the better.
