    I'd recommend a Sony bravia. They might be a bit more expensive than a few other brands but they're worth every penny IMO.

    This is my current TV, I do like Sony too even if you pay a slight premium...
    Fantastic display on it though, better than any other TV in the house.
    Code:
    http://www.sony.ie/product/tv-102-40-lcd/kdl-40r473a
    I got it cheaper than the price on that site by calling into my local Sony dealer.

    Have both LG & Samsung, would prefer to pay the extra few £ on a Sony though.
    LG & Samsung beat the Sony for HDMI inputs, but Sony beats both on PQ.

    How long is the warranty on LG though?
    I do like the one I have, but prefer to use the Sony.
    Got my Sony for less than advertised price & 3 year warranty without any extra cost.
