I read that the Toshiba content and user experience was in fact very basic.

I am interested to know in what way the Panasonic content is better, as this was another set I was considering?
I emailed Samsung about this a week or so ago and asked if Netflix weas available on the 32ES5500 - they said Yes.
Can anyone confirm?
They do indeed.
However, ewww active 3d - Waiting for an LG passive 3d tv to get within my budget.
Great thanks
Only problem I have is when on XMB on PS3, as I scroll through the menu, the dynamic brightness changes are very obvious... Haven't noticed it when watching movies or actually playing games but very noticeable on the menu.
Built in Wireless works, but not amazingly well, but to be fair it's on the opposite side of the house to the router - I've yet to try it with ethernet.
The Smart Hub is good, but not amazing, It works well but it isn't as fluid or quick as I'd like. Netflix works great and in HD. There's also an app for iPhone (not sure if it's on android as well or not) which has a keyboard / touchpad as well so the web browser is much more usable than with just the TV remote.

Thanks really useful.
And what of iPlayer, 4OD, Lovefilm, Blinkbox etc?
Is the iPlayer app fixed now?
Do you use the PVR function?... I saw a youtube video and it looke dOk but not great.. din;t look like you could record from the EPG, only by manually specifying the time/date?
Thanks again.
I think it's still a great price though. And wonder if the newer 2012 models no longer have this issue?
But I think I might hold off until the 7 series comes down in value.

As you stated yourself, that was in the D series 2011 models. I've heard no complaints about the E series TV's regarding 3D. The 7 and 8 series had their own set of problems last year, you'll need some luck to find a set that is absolutely PERFECT.

I can't find the apps for 4OD or Blinkbox.
- Lovefilm and it works fine, Looks exactly the same as it does on PS3 - HD programs (what little there is) are there too.
- BBC iPlayer is great, very slick looking, again, HD works fine. (Likewise for the BBC Sport App)
If anyone wants me to look for any other apps - let me know
I am having to do a lot of buffering but I'm putting that down to fact that a) I'm watching in HD and refuse to do otherwise and b) I'm having to use my laptop as an access point for it due to the distance from the router.
I've just ordered a powerline adaptor - fingers crossed that'll help my connection problem.
Haven't had a chance to try the PVR function, my only spare hard drive is plugged into the my freeview HD box and has a lot of recordings on it so I'm stuck using that until I can clear my planner...
If I can dig out another external HDD I'll give it a try but it won't let me use my flash drive (write speed is too slow)

Get a set of homeplugs ;)
