If yes,,, does anyone make good SMALL 1080p sets? I've got two LG HD monitor tv's (needs Freeview or satelitte receiver connected to get tv). The picture is stunning,I've got a FreeVIEW and a FreeSAT receiver connected and my PC as well. They cost just under £200 delivered from Saverstore .com. 720p but picture looks like 1080p.Only 1 HDMI con though but 2 scarts. HD reception is exceptional. Still need to know if 1080p is best in my usage scenario |

Also, you should know that 1080p is only available with Blu-Ray players, game systems and a few satellite VOD offerings (both DISH Network and DirecTV). There are NO TV channels that are in 1080p from ANY vendor. he's talking about use as a monitor - 1080p would make a difference there. plus, 1080p is needed to view 1080i at it's best. -- Gareth. that fly...... is your magic wand.... |

If yes,,, does anyone make good SMALL 1080p sets? How small? Looking at NewEgg, I found this one (24" 1920 x 1080): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16889160017 If you go to a smaller screen size, there should be even less reason to need 1080p. -- Charlie Hoffpauir http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~charlieh/ |
