Can I also say: 'Sony, Sony, Sony' ----- except:
Right now is probably not a good time to buy a telly.
LCD screens are dropping in price but go above 20" widescreen and they've still got a way to go. Also, what's the pointing in getting HDTV now? Chances are when HDTV comes in you'll want to watch it on a plasma or LCD screen.
What I personally would do now is either wait for LCD screens to drop further, or buy a cheap & cheerful Bush or suchlike now, then trade up when HDTV really takes up (and you'll find out what features you don't and really do need). Just make sure you get 2 SCARTS minimum.
I bought mine online from
The Electric Shop - all was fine, though they're not geared up to delivering to the room you want, up stairs if you're in a flat, etc. At least Currys will come round and set it up for you.
If you're going to be doing any shifting it around yourself you need at least one other person to help you stick the thing on the stand, and I'd recommend 3 of you for lifting it up stairs etc
