TV advice

[ginge]

Hi all, was wondering if any of you could give me some advice.

We're currently choosing a TV to buy and we're interested in either a Toshiba 32ZP48 32" picture frame or a 28" widescreen from another decent brand.

Firstly is the only difference between the 32ZP48 and the 32ZP38 the style of case and the 48 being picture frame 3? Secondly has anyone got one of these and if so what do you think? Would you get another?

The cheapest I've found these on the internet is just over £700 each. Is there anyone on PH who sells TVs who would could offer a similar price? I would much rather someone on here gets some money out of us than some bloke in a shop who I don't know!

Cheers!

TV advice?

Right,

Never mix brown with orange and high heals are not a good idea until you are confident.

Oh, and Clinique have a bonus time twice a year

Don't buy a normal TV yet. Wait until Hi-def hits the ground later this year, and get one then. Normal TV prices will plummet.

I can recommend the Toshiba especially if it has the Dolby built in. My 28 inch is great. If you do want to wait or even get a HDTV ready set make sure it ha a HDMI socket. Retailers are selling sets as HDTV's without them, and without them you cannot plug in a HD source.

Now who is boasting

Thanks for all the information (constructive and non ).

Not many TVs have a HDMI socket on them. Is it really worth making sure that it comes with one? Will Sky be releasing boxes that support HDTV? I'd be suprised if they started broadcasting anything other than pay per view films judging by the level of compression they're running these days. Could you get a DVD player with it? That would be more interesting, but even then the existing standards do quite well I'd say.

The 32" Tosh picture rail is a great tv buy one and enjoy.
