    Be warned that some of those sets form Tesco will be useless once the analogue signal is switched off as you won't be able to recieve Irish digital television unless it has the spec for it - you're looking for Mpeg 4 I believe, details in the Terrestrial forum.

    That aside you should probably asky yourself what it is you're going to use it for - watching movies, standard TV watching shows or gaming or all 3 - and how close you are going to sit to it. If the HD element is important to you the closer you're sitting to the set the more detail you would probably notice.

    it says here it will work with irish didgital anyway, it will be used for watching tv and movies, its only 50hz but it wont be used for gaming so would that matter

    i think i will go with the lg as the sonys response time is 8ms and the lg is 2-4ms so it would be better for watching sports
