What's the difference between a TV and a TV monitor? I assume most LCD/plasma screens can be used as a monitor on a computer.

My parents bought a small Toshiba LCD that seemed to have a decent picture and was fairly responsive. It had some smarts so it could play videos off USB drives.

Thanks Ant. Pretty sure I'm going to get one of the Samsungs. Can't find the 24" in stock anywhere but London so might have to get a 27" instead. Too big for a bedroom? Not had a TV in there for over a year.
Not sure about the media playing capabilities of the Samsung but it has WiFi and the online stuff has BBC, ITV, 4OD and 5.

I can't comment on size (yj), I have a 42" TV in the bedroom.

42" in the bedroom? Impressive (DJ).

I bought a 50" for the living room the 42" is now in the bedroom. It's a fairly big room so the distance between me and the TV is quite a bit.

I did the same thing when I got a bigger TV for the living room (42") but moved the 32 to the kitchen instead. It would be nice to get a big 50" 1080p plasma, before they all disappear, for the loving room but I think the old 32" would be too big for the bedroom.

Perfect. In fact I think I might have something similar in the attic.

Picked up a Samsung 27" smart TV from Curry's today. Very impressed with it so far. Haven't actually got the TV through the aerial working yet but the networking stuff is great. All the major channels on demand stuff, no Netflix apparently though, which doesn't bother me.
It picked up stuff on my NAS easily too. Played BttF with a DTS audio track and it worked perfectly, just a bit slow at scrolling through the media on the NAS.
