remote control, scart lead, batterys....

and to put icing on the cake... it has a 7 in one card reader built in so you can view piccys cards direct to the tv...


and to top it off its only £20!!!!

Hello

I wandered into Lidl for the DVD offer and they had sold out. Wow, what an interesting place.

I have no clue why they are building one in Crowborough, doesn't really seem to fit their "target" audience.

I went down at 8.20 am, and apparantly they were queing up big style outside..

I got the ones i was after

they had a whole pallatt loaded up with them


the only fault i can find, if you can call it that


is that there was no set up/ test dvd in either of the ones i bought,

i spoke to the manager who was more than happy to refund my money, which i dont want, as the unit is fine, he,s going to speak to head office on monday and see what he can sort out


anyone else on here get one??

A Casio watch for 9.99 has more features than a Longines watch, but which will stand the test of time better? I imagine you can get a Sony one for a tank of fuel more?

Quite a few articles to click through at the bottom. After buying up many of the movie studios, record labels and game producers, and already having a large share of the electronics market they now want to criminally infest our personal property with spyware and virus' to protect their investments

I have owned 3 Sony products (TV, tuner and PS1), and whilst their contempt of their customers persists I shall NEVER own any more. For similar reasons I buy all my recorded media from overseas to deny the BPI any joy.

Both my G/F and I needed replacement work watches and spotted an offer at our local Tradex for Adidas. RRP 80 quid watches for 30 quid, but they didn't fit her skinny little wrists due to the rigidity of the bracelet, so she got a crappy 6 quid no-name thing. My Adidas packed up after about 16 months and her POS is still running after 3 years A mate also bought a snide copy of the exact same TAG he had, to wear when the real Tag would have been inappropriate. The real one has been repaired 3 times so far and the snide is still on its original battery, trouble free for 4 years. As for the trouble another friend had with his Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale The price isn't always a reflection of the quality, and usually is no representation of the reliability in my experience.

Cue the endless streams of people spouting about how their expensive stuff is fine
