So I'm pretty close to to pulling the trigger on a 40" Sony 1080p 120hz and Amazon.com's price is $200 under Best Buy, Sears, etc.

Looks like I will be going with them.

I have the same tv in 46" the 120hz makes a huge difference, especially watching sports and action movies. Thats a good deal for that set too.

I once tried both component and Hdmi on the same tv and I never noticed a difference. That being said I would, and still do go with the Hdmi.

TV picture quality is to some degree subjective but I felt the picture quality was "better" on some TV's with component instead of the supposedly better HDMI. But I've also seen several that I felt were better with HDMI.

The difference was very minor though, in all cases I had to really work to see any noticeable difference, but it WAS there.
