Anyone got one of these?

They seem like great value - saw one in a shop and it looked pretty good.

Twin tuners, record to external USB hard drive. Built in DivX/MP3 etc decoder.

4 HDMI

Auto sensor for brightness etc etc.

 

I was looking at the Panasonic G10 plasma - but they look pretty dull in the shops - but everyone seems to quote them as the holy grail of TVs.

 

Wondered if anyone had one of these LG's and what they thought of it.

I got one of these 3 weeks ago, very pleased with it, 1080p looks unreally real.

I'll admit the g10 doesn't particularly leap out at you in the store if you don't know what to look for but in your lounge it'll blow you away.
Don't remember that particular LG but a few reviews i found and my experiences with LG make me say go for it only if it's cheaper than the g10, I'm sure it's not terrible but it seems to be roughly the same price as the best tv under $5000.
