Right, I thought the proper number of vertical pixels for a 16x9 screen would be 720 also, but I have seen televisions that are the same size with a different number of pixels. So in theory the one with the most pixels would be the clearest, but not if you watch a DVD or give it a 720p HD signal, then it wouldn't be displaying things in it's native resolution.

I would like a DLP model, but for my screen size 20-23", LCD seems to be the only option. And $$$ is an issue.
