3D TV Advice?

Hi everyone!

I have a dilemma. I'm leaving for college tomorrow, and I need to buy a TV.

I'd like to get a 120hz TV so that it's nVidia 3D compatible:

It turns out that most "120hz" TVs are not compatible because they only accept inputs of 60hz. My options are pretty much as follows:

I can get a 22" display like this:

OR

I can get a 60" TV like this:

After investigating all of the options, these are pretty much the only two displays that are compatible, even though I REALLY liked this:

My problem is space. In my dorm room, 22" seems way too small for a TV, but 60" seems way too large to use as a monitor at close range. What does everyone think about my quandary? I'd really like the larger display, if people think that it's manageable as a monitor at a desk-like setting.

What do people think?

Thanks!
Jacob
