You cannot run either in there native resolutions with the 360 so either way its gonna look like shit.

That said, the bigger one has better contrast and same response time, its bigger and higher resolution

while it's true you can't run them in their native resoltion... I certainly wouldn't say they'll look like shit...

especially considering both of those monitors are built with component inputs and the appropriate filters to display 720p content without pixelization warping or stretching.

with that said there isn't a single feature of the first monitor that is better then the 2nd...

how is the first one even up for comparison?

I'd have to go with the Dell 2007WFP.  Last week, they had a $100 off special for it, and Dell's fixed the graphical (banding) issues, so it is all good.  

Mmmm...widescreen fun.

I was about to post this as a question as well.  I am considering buying a 32" LCD, and have three different sets in mind at this point.

Samsung LN-S3251D
Sony KDL-V32XBR1
LG 32LX1D

Does anyone have any of these sets, and if so, do you recommend them?
