Hi Mscull

We we can offer you this, the 40PFL7605H (also available in 37" size as well)
http://www.philipsshop.ie/Spec%20Sheets/40PFL7605h_12_pss_eng.pdf

Essential :
100hz - yep, with 2ms response time
Ethernet port - located on the back
MOVIE playback via USB - yep - see spec list for files supported
MPEG4 Tuner - has on board
DLNA - certified for 1.5

Nice to have :
Freesat HD - 'fraid not
"Internet" TV - Its a wired NET TV but with the PTA01 wireless add on it can be wireless enabled. (this costs €49.99)
Wireless option

It is a great TV all round - we have both screen sizes on display in The Philips Shop if you'd like a personal demo just call on in.

They blow you budget a bit however....but it is a pretty special TV
The 40PFL7605H is €1299.99 and the 37PFL7605H is €999.99 but my arm can be twisted.

Check the spec out and let me know what you think.

Hi Ashley ,

Thanks for the reply . I definitely like the look of the 37" , I might try and arrange a look over the next week or so.

There is a SAMSUNG LE40B650 on the richersounds.com site . Any idea if this does MPEG4 ? Seems to satisfy a lot of what I'm after too .
1. Is this suitable for Dublin ?
2. What are the main advantages of the philips over this ?

I'm not sure if your Philips only , if so , maybe someone else from Richersounds can help ,

Cheers

Hi again

I'm all thing Philips as I'm based in The Philips Shop here in wet Dublin
But I can look into this for you.
Richer Belfast dont have it in stock and havent for most of the year - it may now be history.

I'll get back to you once I have info for you.

Cheers

Thanks for all your help .
I do like the look of that Philips , but it might be stretching things just a little too far price wise. The Samsung LE40C650 might be the currently in stock one , but I just need a bit of advice regarding compatability with the incoming Irish Digital and also try convincing me why the Philips is worth the extra money !!!

Cheers again

Hi Mscull

Just got word from John Mc that Richer are out of stock on the 40B650.

Check out our website here (this is the TV section)
http://www.philipsshop.ie/tvindex.htm

Lots of temptation there!!
If you can do with out DNLA/Ethernet and Net TV functions you might to consider one of our 5 series TV's
All are 100Hz/2ms screens and will play various movie files back via USB

The 5605 range uses LED backlighting tech
The 5405 range uses standard CCFL backlighting

These TV's are closer to your budget

Do call in as we have the bulk of the new range on display and I'd be happy to take you through them

Cheers
