Small screen TV with Freeview HD
I know that I shall not see the benefit of HD on 19 inch TV. However, in
order to be able to watch all the available Freeview channels , such as BBC HD, Freeview HD is needed. And yes, I now that programs on BBC HD tend to be repeats but, the scheduled time may just suit me and, without Freeview HD, I would not have the option to watch it. Also, I do not want a big TV in my bedroom or extra boxes. Are there any such TVs? divoch |

AFAIK no small (= 22") 1080p Freeview HD sets yet, but several 1080p sets, including LG M227W and Samsung XL2270HD, which will take BBC HD from Freesat or Freeview HD boxes. |

BBC HD is the only Freeview HD channel that isn't the same as an SD channel. Presumably within a couple of years DVB-T2 tuners will become common even in TVs with non-HD screens. -- Richard |

Yes and no. I was talking to someone who chatted to a John Lewis guy a while
back, and they say that there are some monitors that coupled to a small stb, will do this, so you may have to swallow and go down this seperates route I suppose.

My daughter has a Sony 32" 1080p and I can see the difference but it is not really that marked. At 19" or 22" I doubt it would be visible at all! -- Woody harrogate three at ntlworld dot com |
