I have been asked by a mate at work which one of these to go for as I am supposed to be the audiovisual geek?!!.
Anyway, being a Plasma and PJ man myself I am not familiar with either of the above and was hoping you guys who have/do/will own either of these will know all about them. Really just need to know if there are any known issues with either and anything else to consider both technically on either of these and any other makes/models he should be thinking about?.
He intends to buy a blu ray player soon but is not getting Sky HD until they improve content, so much of the normal viewing will be kids stuff for his son and the usual "family orientated" viewing.
Many thanks in advance.
