Buying a LCD TV

Hi All
I have been spending months trying to decide on a new LCD TV.
Have found one I like the look of (Specs and a couple of reviews on Amazon)
But I would like to see more reviews or views fromm anybody who has the TV.
Cant find much on the net.
The
TV is Samsung LE40A559P4F
anybody got any views or experience of this or any 37 or 40 inxch models.

I want a 1080p Tv for under £700

cheers

    Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it.

    Why is 1080p a waste of money. I have a PS3 where some games and Blu-ray run at 1080?

    personaly i would go for a 1080p 100hz system that has at least 3 hdmi sockets plus the composite connectors near the front and preferably a hdmi connection near the front for ease of connections with games consoles and camcorders etc

    I sit about 2M from my 37inch Samsung LE37**** telly and it is a bit too close. I need to move back a bit for comfortable viewing. It's okay for a 2hr movie but not a full evening of goofing.

    maybe ill look at the 37" samsung instead. The only reason I looked at the 40"
    was because it was a good deal. And I couldnt find reviews of the 37"
