				Spec me a TV
			 
 
			
			Due to an unforseen issue with the Tv in the bedroom we are looking to get another LCD TV.
 Max price £500 (deffo not more)
 Prefered spec would include
 40"\42" (not smaller)
 1080p
 Freeview (freesat would be better but for price i doubt it)
 100hz
 Min 3xHDMI
 Fast response time <6ms would be good.
 
 Looking forward to seeing what you guys\gals come up with.
 
 Al

			Richer sounds seems to always have best prices. 
And 42" isn't too big for bedroom..watching the homemade videos is better on a bigger screen (and only place to get peace)
 
I don't have tv in bedroom..but only because no gf there either    |

If you google the model you will find it for a lot more expensive elsewhere.
