So... you won't accept anything other than LCD?

I'm a proud owner of a 40in Samsung LCD, and I'd will gladly recommend the LCD's made by Samsung. Also, I'd spend the extra cash on 1080p, since I've got a feeling that games will start supporting that in the near future.
The Xbox360 and PS3 are both struggling to even output at native 720p. If you get a 1080p virtually all your games will be upscaled, which does not look nearly as nice as running the game in its native resolution. Since the 360 in most cases is able to at least match 720p, you're probably better off saving the money you would've otherwise poured into a full HD panel. Your games will look better on 720p, and your eyes will thank you for it.
For small screen sizes (20"-27"), if you're sitting over a few feet away from the screen you will be hard pressed to notice the added visual detail anyhow.
LCDs will start dropping prices drastically once emerging technologies (e.g. OLED) start hitting the mainstream. That will be in a few years time, perhaps by the time the next generation of consoles arrive. That will also be when consoles are in all likelihood truly capable of handling today's most demanding games in 1080p @ 60fps. I think that is the time when you should start considering purchasing a full HD set. They will be cheap as chips by then.
