Thanks: Gave 346, Got 194 |  28" Widscreen Question
I have the 36" Sony Widescreen (KV-36FS70) in my front room. I have the 3 main games consoles (ps2, xbox, gamecube), so I'm now looking to buy a 28" Widescreen for them for in my room.
To prevent removing the scart every time I want to play a different console I'm looking for a 28" widescreen that has 2 RGB scart sockets on it.
The 2 tv's that ive been looking at are the...
Sony KV-28FX65
Panny TX-28PL10
but none of these sets have 2 rgb scarts......
Can anyone help me ? Also the cheapest place to buy widescreens would be great too..
Thanks

I've got a Hitachi C28WF530 - a very nice 28" flatscreen that you can pick up for under £500 now. It has 3 scarts, 2 of which are RGB. I have my DVD player in one of them and my Nokia Digibox into the other - pin sharp picture on both.
Try www.empire-direct.co.uk for good priced TVs.

I love the Philips 28PW8807.
It has 2 RGB SCART, 1 S-Video SCART and another plain S-Video socket and a fantastic picture.
It rocks.

I'm currently in the same situation, have been looking for 28" widescreen for a few weeks now.
I was soooooooooo close to ordering a Panasonic TX28PL1 but I've just read a thread stating that the RGB is shabby with DVD playback whcih is what it would mainly be used for.
My search continues...

I was the same but I was going to buy the TX28PL10 which ive heard and also applies to the whole range of panasonics that NTSC playback stinks.........ah well, keep looking i suppose.
I'll probably buy the Sony KV28LS35 at £650 with stand, I cant knock that back......
I would have given the Philips 28PW8807 some thought but I cant find it anywhere....

True - be careful with Empire. I ordered a Panasonic TX28PL10 from them on the 2nd Dec 2001. Credit card was debited straight away, and I have only received the TV today, after 2 months 
Nice TV though
