Review:
I would have liked to get the 42" but it was too big. The 37" sits just fine in my pad. I also have a top of the range 32" Samsung LCD and next to this Panny it rates 1/10 in standard def...
If you're using high-def meterial it's about 4/10 compared to this Panny and if you have a cheap LCD screen you would get 0/10.
The only bug is the sound output - it's too low. If you're spending £1,500 on a TV you expect more than 20-30 watts of sound power.

On 2 December, Freeview HD launched, at least technically. Sadly, there's no equipment that can receive the broadcasts at the moment, but the channels are certainly up and running

Sony Bravia EX1 (KDL-52EX1)
An always good and occasionally outstanding performer, but it's far too expensive
Philips Cinema 21:9 (56PFL9954H/12)
Great piece of kit, but its price tag will make it unobtainable for most
JVC Xiview LT-42WX70
Interesting attempt at creating an innovative TV, but some of its promised functionality is yet to be realised
