It's actually a wonderful dilemma if i think about it.
Here's the lowdown, I bought a Dell 2709W 27" S-PVA LCD monitor for 599 off delldeals.
Awesome right?
I listed it for sale, and I got an offer for 770 ($100 profit)...
And now I have a friend that can hook me up on TVs at bestbuy...so here's the dilemma.

My room is quite small, I'll only be sitting maybe 3-4 feet away from the screen.
27" seems sufficient...but I'm in love with Samsung TVs, beautiful picture.
I can get a 32" 1080p sammy for about 750+taxes.
So I'll be getting an extra 5" for 100ish bucks. Also I was planning to buy a TV tuner for comp, cheapest is about 70 bucks...so if I go for the TV i can avoid that extra cost since it's included...

So what are your opinions?
I watch standard quality television, play ps3, and games on PC off the screen.
Quality wise which will be better? A S-PVA or a LCD TV? i will be sitting really close to it, will pixel pitch/dot pitch be a problem? the dell is 0.303mm, no idea what the lcd tv is.
Are response time/input better on the TV, the Dell is supposed to have bad lagg.
what are the advantages/disadvantages of each?
Help me out!!!
 
I heard somewhere that Tv has a larger pixels.
therefore the resolution wont be the same as in the a PC monitor.

If I were you I would take the 27" and enjoy with it .
im sitting in my office desk in the office right now with a 26" monitor ,
W2600H by LG , its just too huge ..
so sitting in front of a 30" to 32" its like too much.
27" is quite enough for everyone no need to get crazy .
just try sitting infront of the 27" isnt it big enough for you?
if its not then go for the 32 but I cant grantee you will see the best resolution due to the pixel pitch.

that my way of thinking :)
