[mythtvnz] Slightly OT - which new TV

[Brett Davidson]

FWIW, I'm in the same boat as Nick except mine was a Panasonic.

I'm looking at the Panasonic V series or maybe a Samsung. (Like the 
Samsung in our bedroom).

The Samsung has DLNA but it won't support any movies I have. (Not even 
my camcorder avi ones). Never used it.
3D is overhyped and I'm not paying for 3D glasses for everyone. Once 
they can make 3D holographically I "might" be in.

When I get round to deciding I'll take a laptop with me and test them 
out. :-)
