    Heres some reviews to start you off ~

    As general advice ~ you get what you pay for.
    DONT just go off 'specs'. A 768 pixel screen can look better than a 1080 in quite a few cases (Especially at the cheaper end of the scale)
    Buy one with at LEAST 3 hdmis (digital connections)
    Once you think youve found what your after go over to AV FORUMS to make sure its a wise choice
    Pick a tv with good UPSCALING capabailities, not just good at displaying hidef material
    Personally id be looking at Panasonic, Sony and Samsung
