Hi guys, I was wondering what sort of TV you guys have ..I remember seeing a post of a Samsung LE26R41B possibly another model number that a member has here on Esato..I was planning on getting it but wanted to know a few things before I do..

It could have been..I am not sure I just remember seeing it in passing? Its the only real TV that will work ok with my mac and the HDMI..
Have you got that hooked up to your mac? I heard there a problems with the black borders on the side which I see in the pic now..what size is the one you have by the way.
I am looking at the 26-to-32..I need to have it mounted on my bed (Dont ask how) so I dont want to go larger..

i guess it's mine.
Its 32 inch, is HD ready (doesn't need any external boxes)
Has the most ports of any tv, free view built in, firmware upgradable and I've hooked up my Mac Mini to it.
The LCD brightness was the brightest out of all of the ones in Currys.
It has a brightness and audio sensor.
Plus the gloss is sexay.
But samsung didn't do a good job with the paint to be honest. Under certain light it looks like there are light surface scratches (like brushed metal)

Ok you answered most of my questions..thanks mate. The real question is will it be compatible with sky's HDTV as this tv seems to have one snag that its not broadcastin on 50Hz..which is what SKY will be pumping out.,( I am not sure if this has changed since the review was done sometime in June)

sky hd in 50 hz? I dont know which one of us has heard incorrectly but Sky HD will move to 60 hz.
No matter though, i played 50hz and 60hz games and they both looked great.
edit: there are different models. They look similar but they each have slightly different specs. The one that I bought had the max specs. I dont know if that makes a difference. (i bought it from Currys)

Sorry to say you heard it wrong it will be broadcast at 50Hz and thats a fact. They also confirmed that the sports will be broadcast at 720 but have since not said if they will also do the movie channel at 1080 or 720.
Alas this means that this tv will have issues with Blue-Ray and the PS3 due to the 720p its reso is at as opposed to the 1080i being pumped by PS3..
