Surveys show that the only complaint people tend to have about their first flat panel TV is that they wish they had gotten a bigger screen.
I noticed that my 40" gives a 32" 4:3 picture, going by this I would say most people under estimate the size they have gotten used to at home on their CRT's and do not think about the loss of height when jumping to the wide screen displays. I figure I need a 50-52" to equal the height of the picture I have on my current 36" CRT and look simply to widen that display size to accept 16:9.
