28" Widescreen TV's I need help

I'm looking for a 28" widescreen TV, I initially went into this thinking that £350 would do nice, looking around, and reading this forum till my eyes hurt I have the following 3 in mind with up to an extra £200 added to my original budget. The way I see it there is little point in not having a flat screen and 100mhz is a good idea. apolagies for using lots of links to comet just for reference:

1. JVC AV-28X37HKEC, one I was originally looking at myself, supposed to be good but with some colour issues.

http://www.comet.co.uk/comet/html/cache/453_111279.html

£450 approx best price

2. Panasonic TX28PS12C, recommended as great by about 50% of people, with the other 50% seemingly unsure due to geometry problems.

http://www.comet.co.uk/comet/html/cache/453_113220.html

£470 approx best price

3. Sony KV28FX68, The best out there apparently but weighing in at a hefty £200 more than my original budget.

http://www.comet.co.uk/comet/html/cache/453_897928.html

£530 approx best price

So the question being is the extra £100 worth it for the Sony? Or should i be considering something else?

Just to confuse you further I've just bought this one - http://www.qed-uk.com/?i=0-LHOc3HAtI...&bp=64nss&bi=0

Samsung WS28M64NS *PURE FLAT*

It's only 50Mhz but it's got a true flat screen, and is a nice TV, well worth the asking price (and probably more). I've been using it a week now and can't fault it.

Don't know about the colour issues, but pq on the jvc is excellent as is the sound.

The 28" philips sets are also excellent.

Shame about the stands on them though. Really weak. They have already been recalled one and are still quite poor.

I just signed up to this forum to get some info on Panny TX-28PS12C as i will probably be getting that for £464 delivered.
