Do Digital Direct allow you to pick up? I know I enquired about a company in Bolton and they didn't. I think it was this one.

Thanks to Original poster, :T
I managed to get Comet to price match it as they only had 3 left in Powerhouse in Harrogate and wouldnt reserve plus I couldnt get there in time. As Comet also refund 10% of the difference I got it for £206 including delivery.

£206 includes delivery (didnt fancy lugging it up 2 flights of stairs). Powerhouse delivery is £20 when bought instore. So would have paid £219.99 if Id bought from them. The 10% thing worked out that they gave me £108.91 off, not sure exactly how they work that one out but Im happy with the price.

Thanks to the OP on this one.

Had a faulty Bush 28" TV to return to powerhouse for exchange so this TV seemed like a good choice.

However when I got to my local Powerhouse I was told that this paticular model was completely sold out, not one unit left in the UK I was told :rolleyes: . Began looking at the shelves for a different option when I noticed a TV that looked remarkably like the TX28PN1. :j

Anyway to cut a long story short it was the right TV and they had accidentally gave someone the one with in-built freeview! First time i've ever been glad that the staff in these places can be a bit stupid, sometimes.

Well if you missed out on this I wouldn't be too disappointed. If you can pick up the TX28DTM1 mentioned previously for around £250 delivered I would go for that. Having built in digital is a lot better than having an external box.

Probably true but I already have external freeview with a built in hard drive.

The original post was a good buy - just pointing out that with the integrated digital it's even better - so people haven't necessarily missed out on a good deal. In an ideal world (and if I was a TV addict) I think I would have an integrated TV AND an external freeview with HD so you can record one freeview channel and watch another.... plus I guess it's easier to record off an external freeview/HD box.

Having used an integrated digital TV I was surprised how much easier they are to use than TV + box - the downside is that I would be more likely to watch more TV because of this extra ease of whizzing through channels.
