23" /26" Samsung LCD Help/Advise

Hi I am currently in the market for a new LCD TV, to replace my OLD 21" TV in my bedroom.
The TV needs to be wall mounted flat, however i need one of those cantilever wall brackets to enable me to view from bed at 90degrees from wall. (i hope that makes sense) These types of wall brackets i have been told are expensive. £200?? is that right. Anyone know where to get hold of these from?
Also i am not sure which TV to go for. The Samsung range looks very "sexy" however i am perplexed with the model numbers.
Firstly 23" or 26"? Not much between them in price, however 23" would be more than adequate. Also which model should i opt for?
I am hoping to plug into it my PC, (monitor 2) and watch DVD (scart) and hopefully in the next few months get my hands on a PS3. Only one HDMI socket is all I really need at present, but should i try and be "future proof"?
Some one please assist.

There's quite a few Vogels brackets on Ebay for around £45 - check which one you need though as I think there are 3 different standard sizings [Vesa] for the hole centres [depending on screen size]

We use Unicol brackets & stands at work & they are often dearer than the TVs0 -
Anyone able to Decipher the Samsung model numbers.
Which is the better one.
I am thinking either the R74, R87 or R88. I assume R88 is much better than the R74?0
