Thanks for the info, found some stores near me still trading as office-world, will ring tomorrow, could you let me know the model number? thanks

The model Number is Samsung Xiod AT17LP

That link gives the impression it made by Samsung ( not philips or LG)..
Does it look like that picture ( which is very much like the Samsung 710). If so its better looking than many of the cheapies ( like the tacky looking Digimates)

Is there any mention of the all-important refresh rate on the box or in the manual ?

The response time of 30 ms is terrible, you would be be much better off if you go for this

the price is only slightly higher but a much better spec.
