    Im not too sure , but I think the resolution is lower then most other LCD's around. Unfortunetely you missed out on the dell 26" that was been offered last week on their website for €550, as you know you wont get a 26! anywhere that is HD ready for that type of money. I got one and and I am delighted with it. Check the bargain thread for details as i saw that some people that got it last week were going to sell it on again for same price. Also check out www.komplett.ie for some good deals or www.katronics.de (german site) for very good prices.

    Cheers!:)

    Don't know anything about the TV, but ordered my LE32R41B from Savastore and was pleased with them - ordered Tuesday evening, shipped Wednesday evening, got it lunchtime monday. STG£25 delivery to Ireland, and saved 300 euro on the price in the shops here.

    Mind you, while their account department was very good (there was an issue with my credit card address and a few e-mail back and forth, sorted in a couple of hours), their customer service was poor - they never gave me a tracking number to track delivery with the courier, and I had mailed them the morning the TV arrived to ask for one. Forgot about it,
    then a full two weeks later got a reply telling me the TV had been delivered.

    I'm looking to buy this Sumsung LCD: http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=315390&cks=PRL

    Everything looks good except for the connections. It doesn't have scart which I'd need for my Sky+ box and PS2.

    It only has:

    1 x VGA - 15 pin HD D-Sub (HD-15)
    1 x DVI-D - 24 pin digital DVI
    1 x S-video input
    1 x composite video input

    Any ideas of ways aaround this?

    Very happy with the 32" so far. Haven't used it yet for much beyond normal TV and DVDs, plugged the PC in and ran GTA and FarCry on it and looked great. Simple enough to set everything up, even for a relative noob like me. We'd been using my 17" monitor with a TV tuner card since moving house, so obviously the 32" was pretty breathtaking when it arrived :)
    Had a few people over for a housewarming last weekend, everyone was raving about it - and that ewas before I turned it on!

    The courier Savastore used for me was http://www.amtrak.co.uk/ - they supply the "Euro road service"

    Think it took about 3.5-4 days from the time it showed as despatched on the Savastore site. My only gripe was that Savastore didn't give me the tracking number for tracking with the courier, and when I mailed them for it, got no response until 2 weeks after the TV was delivered! But I could always have phoned them if it didn't turn up.could possibly have contacted Amtrak directly, had I thought about it.

    you can get the tracking number on the savastore page by going in to your account mate and go to order tracking and go to your details on your order page and it says Consignment Details:Number and it shows a 12 digit number followed by a .1 ,then go to amtrak and track it

    just did it there but there tracking webpage is crap it just says With Consignor
