Hdtv?

Im thinking of getting a new tv it will probibly be a plasma as its very difficult to find a good old fashioned proper telly these days . now what id like to know is whats the best on the market is it the sony bravia or are the cheaper ones just as good ,also what should i be looking out for resolution etc ?

it will be mainly used with my xbox 360 so it needs to have a high pixel refresh rate which the old plasmas couldnt handle have the HD ones sorted this ?

thinking of a 32" , i have a 33" "old style " one at the momment is it worth changing .

Don't forget to get any benefit of HDTV you need a HDYV providor. At the moment Sky is the only one. It won't improve your pricture without that

If it's 32" then its LCD not Plasma that you'd be checking out.
For the price Samsung is my choice.
They have a 32" model with an enhanced games mode, should do the trick.

I've been looking at various brands and have to say that I'm impressed with the Samsung models. I've had some Samsung products before and they're all very well engineered. They've never let me down.
