I'm looking at getting a new tv. My old school sony "heavier than a house" crt is starting to die so it's time to upgrade. The main requirements are that it will be capable of receiving DTT(saorview), that it will work with a ps3 and doesn't break the bank. I've set myself a miserly €400 budget, but I think it's achievable. I know the more I spend the better I get but once I get something that is reasonably good and will last 3-5 years I'm happy. I'm looking at 32" max but a little smaller wouldn't bother me once the picture/sound is decent.

After looking around a bit, I am completely confused.

HD ready vs full HD

LCD vs LED vs Plasma

inbuilt digital tuners(apparently ones that work with freeview in the UK won't work over here which seems a bit idiotic but that's no surprise)

This one appears o fit the bill but as I said above, I'm confused now and could use some techy advice...
