small HDTV as NLE monitor at DVinfo.net

I've been thinking about this for a while and it seems like this might be the way to go -- that is, to use a small HDTV with Adobe After Effects as a preview monitor for color grading. The TV will be in Rec. 709, so the color space will be right. But it will have to be calibrated so that the picture hits the middle of the color space.

My problem is in finding a small HDTV that can be professionally calibrated. The small ones don't seem to have the controls. The ones that have the controls are too big. I don't have space for anything much over about 32".

So... any suggestions on a small HDTV that can be calibrated?
