    Looking to buy a HD tv, nothing enormous, in the region of 19"-25". Gonna be using it mostly for playin the PS3 in HD for the moment.

    First of all, what's the difference between a 'HD-ready tv' and a proper HD tv?! Or is there even a difference?!

    Second of all, can anyone recommend good places to go for bargains where I can get a good brand for cheapest? I'd be hoping not to have to go over 300 euro or even 250 euro for something up to 23"?

    Cheers

    I'm in the same boat as defenstration. I'll be checking out a few TV stores this evening.

    Can I just mention that there is no point getting an HD Tv if you will not be able to see the improved resolution. Have a look at the chart in this post to see if your intended viewing distance will make it worthwhile:

    For a 19-25" screen, you will need to be sitting no more than about 3 feet away.
