I have a tosh DLP tv
picture quality is excellent but the down side to that is £150 every 2 years for a replacement lamp

Forgot to mention you also need to set up 1 to 1 pixel matching with 1080p/i sources - for ultimate quality

Can't remember option and is not in manual

We love our new Sony Bravia 40" 1080p TV  :y

Yes we have exactly the same....vibrant colours ..sharp pictures...but not so good on movement in my opinion..plenty of pixel drag on football and athletics etc etc.
I think we paid about £630 4 months ago so good value overall. :y :y :y

Have a samsung as main telly,cant fault it. great value (it was free)
have a smaller sony bravia,which is also good but it rarely gets used so reliability ,hopefully wont be an issue.

We will go into John Lewis tomorrow after hospital and see whats what, spec wise as well as price.  

Will hopefully try to hold off on purchase for a few more weeks (telly failure permitting!) so we are into sales territory....   ;D

Yep there are loads of different models, all with different engines.

Ours is the W4500 as well, i play Call of Duty 4 and GTA 4, both very fast moving HD games, no problems what so ever!

Cracking picture  :)

i agree with the boy. I got a new samsung 6 series bout three months ago from costco, mainly for the warranty, had two break since then but on saturday went on a two hour mission to get tjhe third. The tv itself looks goodm, and the picture and sound are excellent, plus, pc world are throwing in a free  blu ray player at the moment all for the same price as the tv was from costco (which i still have the warrsanty from)

Model number is le40a656a.

I bought a Samsung last year and like TB and others, the thing had a fault not long after purchase but after much phoning and refusing a repair they gave me a new one which has been OK since. The picture quality seems to be good as well :y
