    If it was me, i'd go for the full HD. The experts say it doesn't matter at that size, but i'm no expert! I've had a HD ready 32" for years and always wish I held out for a 1080p one.

    Any idea of the Toshiba is saorview compatible ?

    DUnno about the Tosh, but I'd get the LG, no question. Also, some lower end Toshiba's now are supposedly Vestel's rebadged to suit a low price point.

    Anyway, yes, LG.

    Gonna buy one of these TVs but not sure which. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    LG 32LK450U
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-32LK450U-32-inch-Widescreen-Freeview/dp/B004ZC3LPA/ref=sr_1_11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1328832584&sr=1-11

    This one is full HD, can play movies directly off a harddrive and is definitely saorview compatible.

    Toshiba 32BV501B
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Toshiba-32BV501B-32-inch-Widescreen-Freeview/dp/B0056Z7700/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328880643&sr=8-1

    This one is HD ready (does that matter at this size?) and cant play movies, but It's £50 cheaper so could buy a media player like this and still have money left over: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cyclone-Micro-MultiMedia-Player-Adaptor/dp/B00534L3B8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1328905034&sr=1-1

    Also, the Toshiba isn't listed on the saorview website but says its freeview-ready...does that mean it will work with saorview?

    Thanks again.
    Did Amazon ship that to you? I tried buying the LG 32" and they don't ship to Ireland.

    Many, many brands have TV's assembled by Vestel. Doesn't particularly mean they are "rebadged".
