Ok so looking to get a new TV, i know we always have these on STW.
Do you recommend LED, LCD OR Plasma?
Anyone know of any good deals?
Fancy 40 inch minimum as its going in a big room so doesn't look out of place, at round about £400. Would i really save that much waiting until after Christmas?

By the way i've never had a new fandagled flat screen before so i have no experience with them, hence my post. Still got a mega old style 1

What you got for me guys?

Ok we'll start with LED and LCD are essentially the same thing and the Vs Plasma argument is all down to persona preference.

I just bought a 40" LED Samsung, with SmartTV. Very impressed. It was a more than 400 but we had some Currys vouchers so that's why we weren't so price sensitive. SmartTv is a good idea - on demand films from LoveFilm - very handy, and iPlayer too.

Pretty much a thing of the past.

You'll get better tellies than Argos ones if you look around. Plenty of online retailers will do better deals.
