So you would have got the key digital one:
http://www.keydigital.com/detail.asp?Product_ID=KD-VTCA2
had you known about it earlier? RRP is US$299 but I've seen retail
around US$169.

I am looking right now at buying a cheapish 1080i TV (i.e. no VGA/DVI)
and will be looking for something along these lines very soon. From what
I have seen/read the Key Digital one is the best with the AA one a
closish second and the others either very expensive or not up to it.
