All in one with Divx, FM radio, and component video?

Looking for an all in one for the bedroom for less than £150, must have Divx and FM, and preferably component output too. Any recommendations please?

I've seen the LG HT302SD for sale at a few places which appears to do everything I want, it's just a bit ugly!

I've got 502 and is a bit ugly but has all you want and an optical input as well. Seen it now for <£130 (Asda me thinks). Only down side is that it will not reognise all files on hard drive/memory stick via USB if total number of files exceeds 999. I had planned to use it to access all our music on an external hard drive but unfortunately it couldn't hanndle this.

Hi,

the 302 is priced in Currys until 6th Feb at £99.99. If you want bigger sound then the 502 is priced in Currys at £149.99 until 6th Feb, the added advantage it has 200 watts more audio power than the 302 plus it has a Digital Optical input for connecting PS3 or Xbox360 audio for surround sound.

IMHO the biggest drawback to both of these systems is that there is NO HDMI output.

Hope this helps

Will

Thanks for the replies.

I'll be connecting to my old Dell W2600 LCD, and it hasn't even got HDMI, so that's not too important.

The optical input could come in handy sometime in the future, and the 502 also appears to have RDS, whereas the 302 doesn't seem to.

Thanks again, any more recommendations greatly received too.

Bought myself the 502 a few months ago, very happy with it, but now my mate's after a system for his parents, is there anything newer/better on the market than the 502 now for less than £150? Cheers.
