Okay need some electronics help here

I know two posts within minutes of each other. Okay, I am buying my mom a Television. We know it is going to be a 32 inch LCD model. The challenge and question I have for everyone are which ones do you recommend or not recommend. We are looking at Consumerreports.com. I can get a pretty good deal on two of the highest rated ones. the Sony http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Bravia-KDL-32S3000-720p-HDTV/dp/B000P6R6CY/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1202191589&sr=8-1, Samsung http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-LNT3242H-32-LCD-HDTV/dp/B000N4Z3TQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1202191694&sr=1-1. The third option is the cheap option.
Vizio

I just have no clue and don't want to give mom a cheap crappy TV. If you have any comments please let me know. I know if I give mom the option she will probably stick with the Vizio. I am debating the Sony but don't like that it looses in the viewing angle category. The vizio is ratted pretty much very good across the board except for Sound and remote. Not sure that either are important to mom.

I own a 32 inch Samsung HD TV and I love it. I got it at Wal-Mart for a little over $900, and that's with taxes. I thought it was a pretty good deal. My dad works in optics and he says that most of those televisions are going to be pretty good, but you definitely want a TV with HD because all television is switching to HD next year. I'd go with Samsung, or Sony, for good quality.

Oh and disclosure: one of my clients is Samsung. :-) But I really do like my TV.g
