Anyone?

the only reviews i have been able to access are in german by customers who have purchased this product. I am unable to link due to compet links. The general feed back is an excellent product, all connectors included and image quality is excellent. Sharp text and crisp motion. all users average 5-10 on each web site have given the product 5 stars. 9 web sites looked at.

Unable to source a review from a UK website although UK customers who purchased state the same reviews as above.

Thanks, sounds promising. My mum's asked me to try and find a new monitor and she wants to be able to watch Sky in that room through one of those Magic Eye things, I assume this must have an aerial input if it's got a TV tuner?

Hi,

I'm a bit confused with all this HD malarky! can someone tell me if this is 720p, 720i, 1080p or 1080i? Or is it none of those? Thanks!

I think I'm right in saying that it can display all of the above apart from 1080p but if you were using it as your PC monitor you could view 1080p video files, they'd just be scaled down a little bit.
