    The re sizing has, though, made the menus visible/usable

    The only time I see the boot screen is after an update otherwise the box is always on
    The boxes are supposed to left on, when not in use you just go into standby
    But when you plug a new box in and it buzzes....................You worry.

    Tis a HD "ready" TV not a proper HD telly, thats most likely why the option isn't there.

    IMHO LG's are good value for money should you ever be in the position to get a new TV

    I have an LG 50" Plasma in the living room, outstanding PQ
    I also have a 32" LG LCD in the bedroom, also outstanding
    Best bet is to view a few sets (then find the same set cheaper on the net ) but be warned!!!! alot of shop will tell you a load of BS and crank up the brightness and contrast in the shop!!! best to go to a specialist shop and NOT the likes of Currys to view and THEN read up a few reviews on google BEFORE parting with the dosh.
    You can now get LED TV's (bit like LCD) shop about M8

    LCD vs Plasma? pros and cons for both, I have one of each.
