Also at John Lewis. Extra £99, but that five year guarantee is worth the peace of mind

I bought a Toshiba 32" HD Regza 1080p (which I am told is what you need for proper HD) I'm no techy on this.
Cost £419 from Sainsburys on a special offer last year. There loads of TV's out there for much less than this @ 32"
So you should be able to pick one up for under £500 surely.

37 to 40 inch seems to be the average size of choice now.  I would tend to stick with known brands rather than 'supermarket specials'.

Rather than have a plasma screen that uses more energy to run I chose an LCD type.

There would be little difficulty in finding a 1080P LCD set of those sizes that would fit into your budget.

Depends on what size room you intend putting it in.

Biggest is not always best, or infact needed.

Same model sold in Currys, Comet, but cheaper at the time.

I suppose so Mick as I'm sitting 2 metres away from a 40" Sony I feel that I could go to a 50" without it becoming too big for comfort.

With high def. sets (of good quality) I think it's more than possible to push the boat beyond the 32" size. :y

As a matter of fact I also have a 32" Tosh in bigger room than the one I'm in at the moment (with the Sony)  The Tosh is just as good. :y :y

Distance, cant allways agree with that.  I have a 46" Vierra at the bottom of my bed, sadly mainly used as my PC monitor and flicked over to watch TV , I was going to get a 42" LCD for the living room byt think adter using this for the PC I might go 50" or even 60" LCD for the bed room instead, and put the Vierra in the room.
