Marketplace
Note - as i post DSE site saying there is low stock, it is allocated on a first in first served basis, not sure if there is many in stores.
DSE is saying 35% off. I think this would have been close to the price of that DSE 10% off online orders that one-off Sunday night during the Boxing Day sales.
This TV has array LED backlighting, so not as super thin as other LED's, model link on LG site - http://www.lg.com/au/tvs/lg-55LN5710

LG isn't exactly transparent with its TruMotion tech. The description reads: "TruMotion increases the standard 60Hz refresh rate — how often the image is rendered on the TV screen — which drastically reduces blur and yields crisper details. It's a boon to all fast-action video, but most especially sports, so you won't miss a thing. LG TruMotion 120Hz, 240Hz, or 480Hz is available on select-model LCD TVs." Only one TV seems to have TruMotion 480Hz. The rest are TruMotion 240 or TruMotion 120. Their tech specs typically just say "Refresh rate: TruMotion 240Hz."
The one LG LED LCD we've reviewed so far this year, the 60LA8600, is listed by LG as "TruMotion (frame rate): 240Hz," and we found out from LG that it is a 240Hz refresh panel. On the other hand, last year's 55LM6700 had a claimed "240Hz effect" but actually had worse motion resolution than some 120Hz TVs. So don't assume their numbers describe the panel refresh.
