Looking for a cheap, but acceptable TV for the bedroom
I am not overly concerned with inputs etc, I would VERY much like QAM but its not a deal buster.

$$ is king.

EDIT
. I think you would most likely look for ATSC/NTSC. If you are lucky, an off-air HD Tuner built in would be nice.

That TV looks like a good one for the price though.

If you are looking for an HDTV, I might recommend one of Samsungs SlimFit HDTV's. They retail for about the same, and CRT HDTV picture is amazing compared to that LCD.

doh fixed

I thought QAM allowed for unscrambled HD content over the cable networks without a box

27" slimfit


Im sure you can find a 30" for around 450~

My buddy bought a 30" one yesterday for a grand total of 499 shipped to his door.

The Olevia's are good lcd's for the money. I have the 42 inch. Their 5xx models (also the 2xx models) have a built in QAM tuner. (527v if you're looking for a 27 inch). They've had pretty good deals lately also. During black friday, the 32 inch was $370. Now the lowest I see is Target online which has the 27 for $519.

Trust me if I had a time machine I'd go back to BF and get one.

I got the 237v from Newegg on Black Friday and it's a great TV.
