Hey, I am looking to buy a widescreen tv but am not too sure what im lookin for. Ive got around £250 to spend and im looking for something around about 28" with a minimum of 2 SCART sockets and is flat screen (CRT).
I have seen a SONY WEGA for sale at Argos for £230 but it doesnt come with a stand (which I will need).
Anyone have any recomendations/suggestions?

Thanks for your help

Have a look at the Toshiba 28Z47B, Bought mine in Currys for £295 but now going for £249 !!
Great picture quality, reasonable geometry, versatile sound options,2 scarts 1 RGB,stand included,speakers under the screen so not as wide as most sets,overall very pleased with mine.

They also sell it with the stand for about £280 if it helps. The Sony would always get my money for CRT televisions, they generally have an edge on picture quality. That said, Toshiba sets are very good too.

Of the "old" crt technology, I think the Sony's are the best overall. "Wega" models being the last (and best) of that type.
