Response times quite high 8ms and 16ms are pretty much the norm nowadays

I think 25 should be ok for a TV.

you really should find out if this is black-white response or gray-gray, if it's the latter, it won't be that good.

dvid

Hmm doesnt say in the spec will ask em

Phat_focus,
That good or bad?

Nice_aRSe

Lower the response time the better the quality on the screen.

dvid

And I think you can send it back if you don't like it ?
Not sure on that, I have the 26" version and I like it

Joris_FRST

Oh and as it is a dedicated TV, response time isn't that big of an issue really?

It should be ok on both.

dvid

thats a nice lokoing one, like the on eon ebay cos it has in built freeview and DVD, might give it a go we can always send it back

Joris_FRST

Oops, didn't notice the dvd player and the freeview thingie.

You realise 17" is very small ?

even 19" is not a very big telly, especially in widescreen.
