Seems like an ok deal, don't particularly need the DVD player cos the PS3 will be plugged into it anyway.

But could always sell that and make the tv a little cheaperererer.

Apart form the limited PC resolution ??? seems to be a good spec. The price is good too. Including the DVD player looks like a bargin. imho only.

That's the one bit that puzzles me. if the resolution is there, how come it can't make use of it? and would using a dvi-hdmi cable get around it?

you could use a hdmi to dvi cable and run in 1920 x 1080 - you`d need a decent pc to power games at that though

Only thing is, after reading the prices and checking my pulse at the same time, I figured this one here....

for example slowed the thumping noise down a little.

Not as big, not full HD, but a hell of a lot cheaper, and if you'd seen my new flat, not sure whether I'd fit that big a tv in anyway :S

I use hdmi and 1080p with mine but it does allow 1080 though vga also so I am not sure if that is proof that it will work for sure. For some reason the component inputs don't work at all ay 1080. Go figure.

is it not borked - component inputs are put of the HDTV spec I thought?

the 1080 res will be upscalled probably.
so if at all possible see it with a ps3 attached,
its like a lcd monitor, it has a native resolution which always looks the best, but it can scale up to higher resolutions, but you can lose clarity.
But that tv is a very good price, so just use your eyes and make your own judgement of the quality

component cables can only carry signals up to 1080 interlaced, which is really the same as 720 resolution
