Advice on Plasma TV needed?

There is something called CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) built into HDMI but in the case of my poor old Sharp TV it simply turned off the display completely. Fixed with a bit of sellotape in the connector (techy eh?).
I'm sort of looking at Tellys with Internet capability but at the moment the technology is going through its divergent cycle (Betamax,VHS,V2000, or even HDDVD,blu Ray style!). Time for convergence I think.
Early adopters always end up being screwed, iphone anyone?That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -

I agree, why for instance does an item connected via HDMI need selecting via the menu, when an older style Scart connection will switch over automatically?
Progress nerd style I guess....:mad:
I hate scart control. Whenever my video and DVD recorders used to start on timer record, it'd pull me out of whatever I was watching/playing.0
