This is available in Arnotts as well. Looks fantastic (glossy black surround) but it's a 1024x748 model only which would put me off somewhat - model 42PFP5332.

Its still a bargain @ €999, The full (Brand name) HD models are near the €2000 mark.

also its a matt black surround, The samsungs and LGs on display were glossy but I imagine they would scratch easily.

I'm considering this 42" LG LCD for €999. I prefer the look of plasmas generally, but the higher resolution (1366 x 768) is useful considering it will be used with a computer also:

Same model @ DID for €999.95 and they're not claiming it's a "hot deal" :rolleyes:

Doesn't really do harvey norman any favours in my books.

Prices should start heading down big time in the next year apparently china are flooding the market with cheap screens. Sure I only got a similar Philips screen 8 months ago with 25% off in a tesco deal and it still cost me 1600.

The main manufacturers are predicting that prices of plasmas and LCD screens, larger than 37", will fall by 30% during the next 12 months.

The ol' fella was onto me about this the other day, so I did a bit of a snoop, and some of the lads on avforums that have them reckon they're a great bit of kit.

Would be tempted myself, but me being the dope that I am is going to get a 46" 1080p unit!

So if you go into the shop it'll be marked at €999. Tell them the website price. They'll check it and match it.
