Currently the Vizio E321VL costs around $319 from authorized Internet dealers and retailers. It offers a very nice feature set and quality in this small size and price range – which is often lacking in quality options. Competition is from the Sony KDL-32EX520, Toshiba 32E200 and Samsung's LN32D450.
