Default New TV for Xbox 360

Just seen a 360 running high def and have decided to get something for the games room.

I paid £840 for the 32" version of that screen. It's the dogs danglies as far as I'm concerned (even with my current XBox). I heard MS were using the 32" Sammy to showcase the XBox 360, so it can't be that bad.

Oh, and if you get the BD/BX version it has Freeview built in. That's the one I got and the 32" isn't that much more expensive

None that I've ever noticed. Mine is about 6 weeks old now. The supplier said if there were any on arrival they'd replace it. So far mine has been fantastic and money well spent

It was Heidi that helped me out when ordering and she was very helpful. The company have had excellent reviews over on the AV Forums BBS so it was my main reason for trying them.
