decieved by looks!

Advantages: Wheels to manouvre
Disadvantages: cheap finish

...features. I came across the Panasonic range and was delighted, The Tv not only had HD but included a matching stand that the Tv would slid into place on top. It lookied sleek and modern, the price of £1200 including the Tv in my opinion was reasonable, the Stand would cost around £599 seperately at that time. So I waited two days for the item to be delived and was amazed at how easy the whole package was to assemble, I jus slid the glass shelves ...
...etc into the stand and placed the tv ontop of the two holes which although do not look to strong are very secure. My set looked stunning, but then a week later when I was vacuuming around the Tv i noticed the bottom of the stand all scratched, this was caused by the vacuum which i only lightly touched across the bottom to catch dirt, I was very disappointed surely such an expensive stand would not be so poorly varnished in silver that the slight ...

John Lewis JLPA02 - With any indoor aerial reception is an issue.

Advantages: Small, easy to move around the room.
Disadvantages: High price for low build quality.

...trepidation that I went to John Lewis and was once again bombarded with a selection of indoor aerials, all promising to give me the strongest, cleanest digital TV signal I’d ever seen. I made my choice – the JLPA02 - which was about £25 at the time. Taking it home and plugging everything in, the TV went on. A quick scan with the freeview receiver gave me all of the digital channels except those on the BBC 1 & E4 multiplex, a definite improvement. ...
...and changed the position of the aerial to see where I generally received the best signal. Having settled on a position, I rescanned the freeview box and had the missing channels, with signal at around 50%. This, however, was soon to change. When I woke up the following morning, digital reception was nowhere to be seen. Thinking that the aerial must have moved, I repositioned what I had previously considered the pinnacle of all indoor aerials, and ...

I am in complete control

Advantages: Tough, Easy to use, Not overly Priced (if you ever need a new one)
Disadvantages: Mine has tooth marks on

As Sky Plus has began to be a key part of my life I'm now starting to adore the control just as much as the overall service. Coming in a primarily gray colour with a black back and trim (including most of the buttons), the device is well laid out and simple to navigate. At the top are the On/Off button, the Sky Button and the TV button (allowing you to control the TV with the remote instead of needing both a TV remote and a Sky remote lying about ...
...it is on the old Sky remotes allowing you to scroll between programs and channels with ease of just using your thumb to see whats on now and whats on next. The simplicity of sticking a reminder on the programs later the same day is done by pressing select as is changing channel via the scroll menu's an incredibly simple way of navigating a vast number of channels swiftly. The volume control is on the left and the channel change (up and down) is on ...

One For All

Advantages: one for all, combing different remotes
Disadvantages: doesn't always transfer everything you want

...This is what makes the One For All unique as it really is for absolutely everything. The set up is again not anywhere near as hard as what you would think. All you need is the remote itself and then easily work through the manual to set up each of your devices. This literally took me a couple of minutes for each device and even if you make a mistake there is no need to panic it can all be very straightforwardly be corrected. Another appealing factor ...
...switches if desired! Yes the One For All remote can be used to switch your lights on or off or even dim them! Although this is an interesting factor, you have to buy a separate piece of equipment to do this, which in my opinion is very off putting considering you've already paid £20 for a remote in the first place. The main disadvantage of this product is the fact that despite being easy to use the remote will not always have all the functions of ...

To be honest....it could be better!!

Advantages: Easy to set up, lots of features, Great idea for a remote
Disadvantages: Poor userface, bad software, not user friendly

...I know logitech have now bought out the 1100 which i know has a faster response time so will sort out the problem getting around the menu. However, it is the same layout and user interface as the 1000 so i wont be buying one of those either, especially at this price. The cheapest i can find the Remote is on Amazon. This is cheaper than what i paid but then i have had it a while now. This is my second one of these as my first one just stopped working. ...
