Toshiba 42 Inch 1080i LCD - £475 dld (includes 5% code) Currys

Options
Debate going on on Hotukdeals

5% code available & Quidco.

Can't get link, but search in Currys web site for deal

Not 1080p, but cable/sky customers don't get that broadcast anyway. Blu Ray /HDef DVD users will have to think again.

    Thanks for that.

    I see there is a debate on 720p v 1080i. What is your opinion?

    Thanks in advance

    Just the future proof aspect of the unit.

    Although most TV in the UK will be switching to 720p, HDDVD and Bluray offer up to 1080p. To be honest I can't really tell the difference.

    A stonking bargain - don't forget 5% Quicdo also ;) The picture quality on this is brilliant and unless you are going to be watching BluRay/HD DVD constantly you really don't need 1080p. For general Sky/PS3... use you can't go wrong at this price.

    Not exactly correct, 1080i should work perfectly fine - the signal is just deinterlaced and displayed at 1,366x768 instead of 1,920x1,080
  • Hi everyone, Does anyone know if this would come with some sort of guarantee? Curry's own one is £8 a month which is a bit dear for my liking, Id like to get a one off 5 year plan for example. Any ideas ?
  • would john lewis price match? then you get 5 year guarantee
