We'll just have to decide between the hannspree and the Teco. Can actually go to Huddersfield and see it being demoed too which is cool

Just been looking into the Teco in more detail and it seems it has audio input for the HDMI signals, I thought HDMI took sound and video?

HDMI does, DVI doesn't. Since you can get a DVI to HDMI cable, that probably explains it.

Have a squiz at this manual, can you work out why we've got audio in too? Whereas on this set there isn't

It's a bit like when AMD started the XP1400+ when it was really only 1200MHz system.

The AMD story is slightly different as it was never really supposed to be MHz based but this is correct. The same with response times and brightness numbers, usually the quoted numbers are the absolute best case, or they are ratios/timings based on two specific colours that happened to have a great time
