Anyone got a Philips 28PW6006 widescreen?

Hi
I am after a reasonably cheap widescreen without the stand.
I`ve found a deal- £350 inc P&P. I was wondering if anyone else had got one and what they thought of it. It is going with my Tosh 210E, when I manage to get one!
Cheers

Hi Shoes, I`m looking at the 32" version of that model. I saw the 28" in Tescos Extra (Brookfield Centre, Cheshunt), and the picture looked as good as a Sony next to it. Only thing that`s putting me off is that the top seems to be a bit curved, and the manual channel/volume control is in the middle, so I`m not sure how a centre speaker would sit on there (although it seems a good idea to have the control on the top).

I came across someone on the area450 forum with the 6005 (the predecessor) and asked them what they thought - see http://pub37.ezboard.com/ftheencorefilesfrm6.showMessage?topicID=112.topic (I have a feeling this is Upya on this forum)

HTH

I bought a 28 inch 6006 three weeks ago. For the price (£348 delivered) it`s absolutely excellent. Great picture, sound not too bad.

I use it with my Alba 104, which seems to play anything that I throw at it.

Both DVD and widescreen TV are at the lower end of the market, but I can recommend both.

Have fun.
