Spec me a telly.

[Knipples]

Ok so I am going to ask the Birthday fairy and Father Christmas to club together and buy me a new telly. The one I have now is 5 years old, and is crap. Its one of the old big bulky shaped ones (as in not a flat screen) and its just, well, poo.

Can people help with what sort of things I need to look for. I wouldn't mind it having built in freeview for when the Virgin dies (although i'm guessing that costs more) i'm not that fussed about HD, but it would be good I guess, my Dad said something about it needing to be a certain type of HD though.

I don't need it to be any bigger than the screen size of my current telly, which is 26 inches, (i've measured it across the screen diagonally, which I think is right) it physically cant be much bigger than that, cos of where it needs to sit (I have a desk with the telly, the virgin box, and the dvd recorder, which are taking up pretty much the whole desk as it is. I don't really want to spend anymore than between £200 and £250 (if thats possible)

I have £30's worth of vouchers which I have acquired from my credit card, which can be spent in certain shops (Currys, Argos, Halfords I think - was going to use these to help with the cost)

So yeah, give me some help please people!
