    Its being muted on AV forums that Panasonic will be giving a 5 year warranty on their Plasma tvs from 1st May.
    So will be waiting the extra couple of days to see if this happens.
    Hope so!!

    It's so confusing with Plasma (LCD), am i right in thinking the more you spend the better the TV?

    Plasma (LCD)
    Are you indicating that you consider that Plasma = LCD? It doesn't.

    For TVs up to 37", LCD seems to be the one to go for. For 40/42" it's a matter of personal preference - the Gadget Show's tests on Panasonic plasma vs Samsung LCD came out "you takes yer choice" depending what's important to you.

    I haven't paid any attention to larger sizes, given that even 23" is out of my range ;)

    And having said all that - good ole CRT is best for standard definition digital reception, but the manufacturers are not producing them much. The only reason I'd go for an LCD is the size:weight ratio - a 32" CRT can weigh 50kg :(

  • I know that this might not seem like a bargain as it is £1K but thought for the size and the resolution that it was a good price, could anyone help?

    Its from Play and its a 40 inch Samsung with HD, 1080p resolution and Blu - ray ready, only thing is that I don't think it has freeview but I already have a top set box.

    heres the link

    Can anyone tell me if this is a good deal. Was thinking of getting a Hd ready tv but was going to get a 42 inch for £699 from Comet. Is this a better deal? I dont really need the extra 10"

    Its a good deal if you want a 32". Lots of 32" at £399 now but not something with a brand like LG or looks quite as nice as that.
