    Why do you say that, Jenna?

    It is a bit of a niche market really, like the golf gps. Appeals to a select group of people rather than the masses. I cycle but I don't use a headcam.:)
  • just seems a bit rubbish - not that good quality picture & funny that it started going so quickly

    Earthlysparky, their Aunt fell over and they had to go to the hospital :(

    Thanks for the reply.

    Today, my husband had a phone call to say that he had passed the interview for promotion. My daughter's b/f got run over and is in hospital with a broken leg. And I've been on here all day checking the price of socks!

    Depends on the cat... I *used* to have a fountain for my beasties, until I got a Bengal a few years ago - they love water and she decided immediately that the water fountain was for playing in rather than drinking from... So cue all the water all over the kitchen floor in 5 minutes :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: got fed up with mopping so the fountain went to a non-Bengal owning household :D

    Our cats are part Bengal. Pixel prefers to play with a dripping tap, Nibbler prefers running water to drink. Nibbler also likes licking the ground outside and he's very chatty. :rotfl:

    How can people say today was poor?? (although there weren't as many socks, undies, the chocs were overpriced and there are not really any 'big' deals) don't forget the £1.99 ds games :D

    You're right Jetty, but they were incidental buys, not really headliners! Every day is poor without GHD's:D

    For those of you considering the TV, quick verdict from the AV Forum review:

    Pros:
    Excellent video processing
    Good calibrated greyscale performance
    Good off-axis image accuracy
    Excellent handling of motion
    Large screen size for the price
    Gaming performance is good with no lag time

    Cons
    Bad image retention issues
    Oversaturated colours especially in green
    No Colour Management System
    Mediocre black levels and contrast ratio
