On the hunt for a telly for my mother-in-law

My mother-in-law needs a new telly - ....I thought how about a freeview one (LCD or plasma) about 20 to 24 inches ... she'd like more channels but can't work more than one box or one remote - but, and here's the big but, she needs just a simple remote - you know, just a few buttons (and maybe even BIG buttons!) - anyone any ideas please for a freeview TV, flatscreen, simple remote?

I would say get a cheapo one from Argos or Tesco/Sainsburys - you can take it back if she doesn't like it. Does she watch dvd's? - get a tv/freeview/dvd telly and there will just be one remote to manage. I have seen giant sized remotes in shops, like this one on Amazon marketplace, but a lot cheaper:

My sister got a Bush 19 inch tv with freeview from Argos (not on the website at the moment) for around £130 - happy with it so far.0 -
Thanks for the remote link - it looks just the sort of thing0
