A. To begin with, LCD is a very nice technology, and it does offer the best picture. But other technologies such as plasma offer a wide viewing angle and better performance in low lit areas. 1080p is much better than 1080i. 1080i is interlaced (hence the i), meaning you're not getting every detail on the TV every second. 1080p delivers 200 million pixels, in progressive format, meaning you get the whole picture. Currently, 1080p is the king of HD formats, and only Blu-Ray or HD-DVD movies offer that (natively). The best brand for TV's would be Sony, LG, JVC, or Panasonic. Look for a 1080p TV if you will be watching movies on your PS3, or get a normal HDTV if you want to use it solely for games.
Plus, ask yourself this:
How far will I be sitting from the T.V?
The further, the more bigger your T.V should be. For example, a distance of 5-6 feet would be good with a 42 inch, or if further, get a bigger T.V.
Think about your budget also. Again, if you want a big T.V with 1080p, its going cost you a lot. Plus, 1080p T.V's are expensive compared to regular models, and 1080p has to be on sets over 50 inches to really be noticed.
Overall, to basically answer your question, any HDTV is nice with a PS3, but it is your preference, and your needs which influence your decision.

what is the viewing size difference for wide screen tvs?
Q. more specifically, how much more viewing area do you get when moving from a 37" widescreen to a 40" widescreen, from a 40" to a 42", etc. i want to know at what point it becomes worth it to upgrade in size based on how much you are paying per extra percent of viewing area.
A. Construct the formulas in a spreadsheet and you can get as precise as you want ... but it's ultimately a subjective decision.
You can use the ratio of screen sizes alone as close enough (since aspect ratio is fixed the area changes proportional to screen diagonal). So you just need to compare relative prices to relative screen sizes to get a measure for $/in screen size which is proportional to $/area
Note that a widescreen HDTV needs to be about 12% larger than a 4:3 TV to give the same "size" image (See 1st link).
However, the real issue is what is the right size screen for where you plan to view from. Or, since any size screen will look the same if you sit at the distance that provides the same viewing angle, what is the right viewing distance for your optimum $/area TV?
See the 2nd link for some additional info on viewing distance, angle, screeen size, etc..

Is there a better version of 3-D glasses for home viewing?
Q. I have the 2-D/3-D version of Journey to Center of the Earth on Blue-Ray and the 3-D version looks completely green on all of our TVs, including the HDTV. It appears to be in 3-D, but the color is all green or red. The same thing happens at a distance and for the rest of my family.
Are there any better versions of 3-D glasses for home viewing.

A. There are lots of 3-D movies coming out so I have been looking into getting some better glasses than the cardboard ones.
I found the company below. I cannot personally recommend them yet - but they have a selection of sub $10 glasses.
