General Comments
I have now had three of these televisions and all of them have had the same problem. Its getting to the point where you doubt yourself as the dealer does seem to insult my intelligence.
The colour on this widescreen is not uniform. by this I mean that in the corners and in fact over the whole of the left side of the screen there are colour variations.
I have never yet seen a pure white on this make and model except in the centre of the screen. The dealer is constantly asking if i have speakers around the set which of course i have not.
Secondly, the manual states that the tv will auto select the right picture size - this does not happen. On widescreen, 4:3 16:9 or any other size the tv reverts to the menu default. all this despite the fact that I have a state of the art ariel system and sky digital and dvd transmitting widescreen format along with the appropriate signals.
DO NOT BUY ONE OF THESE TV'S! it will drive you crazy!
