"28" Philips pure flat virtual dolby widescreen tv a couple of weeks ago for £550 and it has excellent sound and good picture. I did have problems tuning the television into sky digital but apart this it has been trouble free. I option I really like with this Philips television is Smart Sound effects which means I choose between a variety of audio effects with the touch of the remote button, and which virtual dolby sound it's much better than our previous nicam televsion. Other useful options is the picture size option of either 4:3 or 16:9 format broadcasts in your preferred format.
