Where the heck can I get a LCD TV which has a high resolution!?!

**Joefireline** · 10-13-2006, 03:23 PM

Right, I am wanting to buy a LCD TV for my room, mostly for use with my laptop, and big one, like 26-32", not really too worried - just something inbetween, that actully has a resolution higher than 1366 by 768! I can't find one anywhere! I want at least 1600 by 1200 resolution. My laptop has 1200 by 800, as this is going to be almost twice the size, I want a better resolution than this.
Anyone know where I can get one?
(BTW, I need it in England, and prefer not to have it shipped from other countries)
Chears!

wait till the new year when the lasers hdtv's come out

**Joefireline** · 10-14-2006, 02:38 AM

Good point dai.
Did a google search and found they would cost around $1000 for a 50" one, that is... £538.910! Amazing! Read this: http://uk.gear.ign.com/articles/738/738336p1.html , "If you look at any screen today, the colour content is roughly about 30-35 percent of what the eye can see. But the very first time with a laster TV we'll be able to see 90 percent of what the eye can see." - sounds good!
I'll be waiting

Thanks dai.

That isn't bad, very cheap, but just a bit smaller than I was hoping for. I want something at least 26" which I can wall-mount.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824009089 is biggest unless you want 32"

Wait a few more years for OLEDs to become mainstream and get a screen that covers your entire wall a la "Total Recall".

Do you have a budget?

**bruiser** · 10-15-2006, 08:39 PM

With SED and Laser tv coming next year, things could get interesting.

That is pritty good, though I want it to be a standard TV as well, so i don't have to use my laptop with it.

Well, my budget isn't really set, I still need to save up a bit for this. If need be, I will spend more and wait a little for it. The thing is, if I can buy say a laser one for £600-700 for a say 50" one, I certainly would! They say they are going to be $1000 for a 50" one, which is just unbelievable. If it was for a 26" standard LCD, I probably wouldn't go for it.

I think I will go for a laser one when they come out, they look pritty impressive. I will just have to wait a while.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.
