    I’m considering getting an LCD TV for use with my PS3 so I get full advantage of it, including the Blu Ray as my current TV does not have an HDMI outlet. I have looked at this one:

    But I was wondering if anyone knows of any cheaper alternatives. That is the kind of size I’m after and the fact that it has both Scart and HDMI is a big plus but I was hoping to stay below the £200 mark (I’m aware that £199.99 technically is!) If I can’t, then I’ll probably get that one.

    I’d love to assist Johnboy, buy this type of product isn’t one that I am over familiar with.

    Hopefully, one of our members has some experience that they will share with us.

    Join the club, my knowledge of them extends to ‘Oooooohhhhh, look – smart! That’ll do me’ :lol:

    I sort of know a bit about these things but that also means that I sort of don’t.

    LG M228WD 22″ HD Ready LCD TV/Monitor with Digital Freeview 1680×1050 3000:1 5ms HDMI/VGA Speakers Black 3 Years Warranty

    for sub £200, this looks as good as I can find.

    The one on play.com you found is 19″, this is a 22″.
    This has a higher screen resolution than the 1 you found on play, which as i’m sure you are aware will make the picture better the higher the resolution.
    3 times the contrast ratio of the play.com one.
    Oh and this has freeview built in.

    Anyhow worth a look, hope you find what’s right for you :)

    Not bad at all, infact better than. Digital ready as well which means that I won’t have to fork out for another TV when we switch to digital next July/August – didn’t have that on the Samsung one, or a three year warranty. Delivery costs more but it looks better value for money. I’ll definetely be having a think about it.

    Thanks :D

    That’d do me, there’s no real hurry. But I’ve had my current one for six years, and god knows how many years it had been in circulation before that so it’s starting to fade. I don’t think I get the full benefit of the PS3 on it either. And having a TV ready for next year is an added bonus.

    I’ve looked at that one and im sure it’s discontinued so i’d still try and find it somewhere cheaper.
