It tends to be TVs with freeview. In my experience the display on a tv (even a 1080p one) isn't as good as a monitor.

TV Tuner card/USB Dongle I reckon.

You can get a number of pretty decent monitors with Freeview tuners. I have tested a number from Samsung who seem to make some of the better ones. The FX2490HD was partcicularly impressive but a bit out of your budget. I would suggest seeing if you can get a good deal on an XL2370HD - it is an absolutely corking monitor with a built in DVB-T tuner. Last time I checked it was around £220. You can also get cheaper ones such as the P2370HD (which is the XL2370HD's predecessor) but I would pay the extra if you can.
