  Hot.
  
  Can someone please read this http://www.avforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=524919 and tell me if it does 1:1 PM (not in the manual)?
  
  If so looks like a good alternative to Sharp.

  Read it yourself. :p
  
  
  I dont know if it will support 1:1 exactly, but it will definantly do it with at least some overscan, 1360x768. - Which to me looks crystal clear anyway.

  Just found a review of the tv and here's a quote from review saying it has! "With Exactscan (1:1 mapping) enabled over HDMI and component," but it also states in the conclusion that it's only capable of "1366x768 from the vga port", so from that information i guess it means if your connecting your pc to it best connection would be to the HDMI port for full 1920x1080 resolution for that you would need a HDMI>HDMI lead or failing that a DVI-D>HDMI lead the latter wont have any audio through the tv though.

  Why don't new TVs have component? Is it something the manufacturers are trying to phase out?

  I have the 37" model, and it's very good on SD sources too, such as TiVo and DVD. One criticism of the Sharp models was bad SD upscaling but the Tosh is excellent. The internal EPG for freeview is good, and a PS3 through HDMI looks suitably lovely too.
  The only thing I dislike is the lack of discreet input-source codes on the remote, and slow source switching.

  waiting for Z series with 100hz and hdmi 1.3. wouldnt mind x.y colour too!

•

  Yeah but at what price will a new TV with those new features be?
•

  Reading that avforums thread and jumping to the last pages, there seems to be some debate as to how well this set displays blu-ray films via a PS3.

  If you wait for the new technologies you'd never buy anything, what with the rate of development in the entertainment market.
  
  Does anybody rate renting a TV (so you can get the afore mentioned new technologies updated all the time?).
  
  I've never rented but would be interested to hear other opinions...

  For people interested in this machine
  
  It gets good reviews everywhere
  Not many faults raised in forums
  It does 1:1 pixel mapping over component and HDMI
  it does not do 1080p@24 for those wanted 24fps action from their PS3 blue ray
  
  Still very tempting at this price though. But looks like 1080p is becoming the norm and prices will fall further.
  voted hot regardless
