It's strange, you can't get 1920x1080 TV's at anything under 45" (the Sharp Aquos, just under £4K). Why this is, I just cannot fathom.

Consider that a 26" Samsung 1366x768 TV will cost you almost the same as a 24" Dell which does 1920x1200... it just is not easy to reconcile. Then you have the Dell 30" at the same resolution as a certain higher-than-high-def digital video format and it costs less than £1300. DVI input only, but so what?

Also, can anyone tell me what happened to the so-called 'LCD and plasma killers', SED's?

I so very nearly bought a Samsung TV instead of the Dell. I was literally a mouse-click away. The thing that swung it for me was that I could use the Dell of just about anything. The Samsung was going to be for the Xbox 360 alone (I do not watch broadcast TV and there's no way I'm getting Sky or cable).
