Worth swapping my KV-28FX68 for KD-28DX200

Hi all,

Well this is my first visit to the AV Forums and have spent the last hour reading posts about Sony's tv's, mainly the Freeview capable DX200's. I am just amazed at the knowledge of some people and the helpfulness of others. I knew nothing of service menus etc and am just about to go downstairs to see if my KX28FX68 has any color smearing!

Anyway, my Dad has asked me to order him a new tv from work, where I can get some discounts on Sony tv's. I was suggesting either the KV28CS70 (non-Freeview) or the KD-28DX200 (Freeview). I also mentioned that I preferred the look of the new DX200 with its black border around the screen. So he offered to buy the DX200, but give it to me and to take my FX68 and my Sony Freeview box in exchange

So what do people think? Is the DX200 a better tv? Are there any issues with Freeview built in Sony tv's?

Thanks for any help!

The IDTV Sony Freeview tuners are among the best out there - however compare them.

The DX200 does have two RGB scarts which is nice.

The TVs can support a CAM if you want to get
