Same here.
You may want to consider that if you are using your TV to watch HDTV 1080p you are supposed to be alot closer to your tv than previously recommended. HD has alot more detail that you would not be able to see at a distance if the tv is not of adequate size.
I would suggest for you to determine you viewing distance and then to go to the store to see for youself. Start at that distance and walk right up to the screen that interest you. If as you walk towards the screen you start to notice more detail, then the screen is not big enough for your viewing distance. Personally I find aything more than 10' and I loose detail on a 50"
