McDaniel you won't regret buying that TV. I have the model at the other end of the spectrum (26 inch) and its fantastic. Only issue I have ever had is slight red bleed on bright red text on the PC. Never had any issues with it playing the 360. I'll post up some pictures for you after 10 when I finish working

thanks SiD - it wont be used by my PC at all, just with a Sky+ box + 360

Should save up and buy it all in one go really.

If you spending £1250 on a TV, have you considered the Toshiba 42WLT66?

Same price, but is bigger and better.

Can also get 9 months interest free from a certain online shop.

Reading through the big thread on avforums suggests that these sets have some sort of banding issue. Theres also a lot of people who are very happy with the TV.

Big AVForums thread

If it was me I'd get the samsung for under a grand.

aaaah kreeee still not got the answers you wanted then, see you posting in avforums for info on that TV. Have you actually ordered it now then? If so when will you be expecting it? I placed an order last week and im awaiting confirmation of stock and a date altho i am on the list as soon as they come back in

Yeah course, but im still unsure of when i will be getting this TV tbh its a tad uncertain im just waiting now, they are getting stock on the 17th so i should know by this time

So dont hold out for me lol tbh i cant see it having any issues this tv looks fantastic and for this sort of price you aint gonna get much better

Took some finding but a reviewer says

This is a great tv, gives great HD picture and the SD is not too bad either. very happy the the 2 HDMI inputs and how this tv looks. the pc input doesn't do 1:1 pixes mapping, which is a little annoying. overall this is an amazing tv.

Do you want the 1:1 mapping for the 360? Cause i cant see that being a problem, if its for PC then surely with powerstrip it can be tweaked?

Also i think it has DVI inputs? And isnt DVI 1:1 mapping anyway?

My LE26R73BDX (please excuse my ghetto camera skills, the pictures are a bit dark as the flash bounces off the screen):

You can see some banding but only on camera. Odd as I've never seen it in real life :eek:

OMG GEARS OF WOAR! (Calm down everyone! Its the rolling video you can download)

Some Most Wanted. I posted a couple of PGR 3 shots waaaaaaaaay back in this thread somewhere. Have other games but can't be bothered to load them up and find some nice scenic places for pictures

Edit: Looking at these pictures doesn't do the screen justice. I have no camera madskillz.
