Wanted: 22" TV with Built-in Freeview HD Tuner

Is it too much to ask? I've been browsing the web but I can't seem to find such a beast. Plenty of "HD Ready" and "Full HD" but they all seem to have just a Freeview SD tuner. Any suggestions? Please. Or am I doomed to buying a separate box?

There is not a lot of point of fitting an HD tuner to a TV with such a small display, at normal viewing distances the difference in picture quality would not be apparent. Smallest sets with and HD tuner seem to 32 inch, unless someone can find one.That gum you like is coming back in style.0

If you go up size a bit there is a 24" Panasonic:

Both the Sony 22" and the Panasonic 24" linked to on this thread have Freeview HD tuners, by the way.0 -

That is why you MUST sit a lot closer to an HD TV than to an SD one.
The best HD picture I have ever seen was on a 14" Samsung !
I don't know why, but people just won't sit close to a TV to get the full benefit of HDTV (but they sit that close with their PC) - perhaps it was because their Mum told them that sitting too close would "damage their eyes"0 -
Just to complete the loop...
I have just bought a Samsung UE22F5400 for a bedroom. The Freeview HD tuner is just the icing on the cake and its Smart TV capability was the main reason for the choice. Tesco Direct had a bank holiday £20 off offer which influenced my timing.Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??
