thanks to these forums i am not buying into 3d. i have also decided that i should buy a 46"tv (2.5 m viewing distance). thing is which one, samsung 46" only have 100hz refresh on new models unless a 3d tv. pana 46 g20b is an option as is sony hx703 or hx803. costs are similar ish, could buy them for £15-1600. thing is no reviews yet so am in a quandry. any ideas ??? oh and then the philips 42 9664 is down to £13-1400 pounds now, though back to 42". ideas, you've got me this far !!
