Excellent Flat-Screen TV

Advantages: Flat Screen, Great picture and sound quality
Disadvantages: Wish there are more sockets

...When my 8-year old rounded?screen television set started to produce unnecessary green and purple colours, I decided to get another telly. Though I wanted to get keep that old TV for sentimental reasons, the distorted colour made me want to throw it out of the window at times. I wanted to save that television set anyway so I had it checked by a technician and he diagnosed it with a damaged picture tube so I ended up ordering SonyKV28FS20. When the television set arrived, I was surprised with the very huge box. The two delivery men did have a hard time getting it out from the delivery van and into my house. When the box was opened, I was amazed with that big pretty TV. A rabbit antenna, a remote control and a multi-language user manual were in the box too. SET UP Set up was easy once the SonyKV28FS20 is installed. I just...

The Queen on .tv!

Advantages: layout, design, information, photos
Disadvantages: /

...I would say there are six websites that I could not live without. I would not say that it is a mixed bag of sites - it is either money making related or media related. One of these media related websites is the official website of my greatest inspiration in life. She is such a wonderful person, and a perfect role model. Who is this woman? Of course, it's Andrea McLean! If you for some reason do not know who Andrea McLean is, then I am a tiny bit offended! She was a long running weather girl for GMTV, only to give up that post a few months back. She is now the main anchor of ITV daytime chat show phenomenon Loose Women, a job I would kill for. She is one of the most amazing TV Presenters around, and has such a wonderful personality. The day I met her was one of the most amazing days of my life, a moment I will treasure forever. She...

laptop on a TV screen

Advantages: watch movies on your tv from your laptop
Disadvantages: none

.... This cable is a belkin one, which is a company who have been making computer accessories and wireless devices for a number of years and are very well known for it. They are also well know for their good quality and reliable cables and make so many different types there one for whatever you need to do really. Because this is a VGA cable one end goes in your PC or laptop and the other in the back of your TV. It really a s simple as that. All laptops and pcs being made now have this capability to plug this cable into them and the port is usually a blue one which is longer but a little thinner than a USB port. Some really older pcs might not have the port however anything newer than 5 years should definitely have it. There are 2 screws on each of the ends which are there to screw into your pc or laptop and then your TV as well...

A slick print screen facility

Advantages: Options, it works well, it's free
Disadvantages: Can be slow to email as an attachment

...If you look at your computer keyboard on the top row of keys on the right hand side you?ll see the ?Prt Sc? key, the one that captures a print of the screen that you are currently looking at. It?s a very handy facility to have but notorious for not working properly & being a little restrictive. Gadwin Systems offer free software that eliminates the problems of the ?Print Screen? facility & turns into a very slick operation. You can capture a screen print & save it for printing, you can choose a number of ?hot keys? that you prefer to use for the simple function. You can capture a full screen or a certain section; in fact there are about six different image formats to suit each individual user. I find it very handy when your browsing through websites looking for something & come across similar offers, printing a copy of the various...

Touch Screen Fun

Advantages: Original, nice looking, sturdy
Disadvantages: Limited range of games

...screen. It really is excellent, and makes the DS worth the money. It is accurate, generally easy to control and the screen doesn't scratch permanently (you do get temporary scratches, but these rub off easily). There is a handy holder for the stylus on the side so it'll be quite difficult to lose it. There is also a D-Pad and four buttons for non-touch screen games, which are clear and easy to use. Another control is the microphone - I have only used this for 'blowing' games, not 'talking' games, however my experience of it is negative. It doesn't work, and you'll give yourself a nasty headache trying to blow into it anyway. -Extras- The range of extras are things like an alarm, a Wi-Fi chatroom and a customisable profile. You can also change the colour of the start-up screen to suit your tastes. These extras are neat, but nothing to...

TV Quick

Advantages: *
Disadvantages: *

...I still live with my parents and this is the TV magazine that they buy. I don't see the point in buying another TV magazine just for me. I read this magazine more than I actually watch the television. Due to exams, drama, sign language and ciao I don't watch very much television. However, every now and then I do sit down and watch an episode of Eastenders or Coronation Street, with my mam. I don't need to watch every episode to know what is going on. Apart from the fact that usually nothing much is happening, I can read the TV quick to catch up. TV Quick come out weekly and costs 70p. We get it delivered from our local newsagents with our newspaper. We usually get it on the Tuesday, before the TV listings in the magazine starts. I say magazine because it is more than just a TV listing. To write this review I'm looking at a copy...

Pricedrop.tv

Advantages: Can find some good bargains
Disadvantages: Long wait for delivery

...Introduction Pricedrop.tv is an interactive auction channel allowing you to bid by phone and Internet. You can also watch the live auctions on Sky Digital, Freeview and cable networks. It is a sister channel of bidup.tv that has been established for a longer duration. How does it work? When an auction begins the auctioneer introduces the ?lot? that people will be bidding on and tells you some brief information about it. On screen viewers are given several pieces of information. This includes: the guide price (the manufacturers recommended retail price, or the average of two prices gained elsewhere), quantity left in the lot, the current price drop value (the price you would pay if the auction ended at that time), banners along the bottom informing viewers about the product and the names of people who have placed...

A TV TV!

Advantages: Portable(ish), cheap, good value
Disadvantages: Needs an external aerial, viewing software is buggy

...application and the drivers required for your device to recognise and use the TV tuner. The WinTV2000 viewing application is a resizable window with various unlabelled icons used to display the TV signal on your screen. In addition to the main viewing area is a "hide-able" "Remote Control" which features a more intuitive interface for controlling the TV output ( a rotating volume knob for instance). The TV viewing window can be set to stay on top of everything else on your PC (so you can nestle it in the corner of your screen whilst continuing to work on other things) or blown-up to full screen size with the click of a button. The unit has proven to be quite sturdy as I have carried it around a number of places in the bottom of laptop bags and still nothing inside rattles - I generally find this to be a good indicator of sturdy build quality...

Nice clean screen

Advantages: Works well, lasts ages
Disadvantages: quite exspensive

...I started using Vivanco TFT Screen Cleaner when I purchased and LCD screen TV in December. It was recommended to me by my local Euronics centre when I went in to find something to clean my TV as normal polish can't be used on an LCD screen TV. It cost me ₤7.99 for a 200ml bottle, and comes in a green bottle which is made from recycled plastic and you get a lint free cloth to use with it which is kept in the lid. It uses a pump action spray mechanism to dispense the cleaner. This product is environmentally friendly and alcohol free. Most importantly with this product is it is Butylglycol and Methanol free so it will not damage your TV screen. It also has anti-static properties so it helps keep the TV looking cleaner for longer. It can be used on Glass, TFT, LCD and PDA screen and mirrors. This is a great product...

Review of Vivanco TFT Screen Cleaner

A TV Show, about TV shows

Advantages: Good debates, Interesting topics
Disadvantages: Only once a month

...'The TV show', is in a sense Channel 4's answer to 'Points of View'. It's on monthly, on channel4 and addresses viewers opinions regarding what has been on television that month, and any complaints that have derived from viewing. It is presented by Channel4 news presenter, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, and the show is handled in more of chat show debate forum (Trisha style) rather than reading out letters a la Terry Wogan on POV. They often invite producers (or other relevant people) of whichever shows have created controversy that month. For example, this month they had one of the executive producers of Big Brother, plus a psychologist debating whether or not the show has run it's course, whether or not they were taking away the rights of the viewer by removing housemates before they had chance to vote people off, and whether or not it...
