We are looking to buy ASAP a new 40 - 42" (preferably Full) HD TV with a 2 year warranty to donate to a local Inner Sydney School with holiday care facilities. Their current ancient analogue CRT screen has gone to the Big Powerpoint in the Sky.
Because it's going in a classroom with lots of windows it MUST BE an LCD with a Non-Gloss, Matte Screen.
We are funding this donation ourselves and have raised about $450. Obviously the big names are out of our league but we want to find the best set we can afford.
We're watching OzBargain posts but please keep us in mind if you come across a deal you think might suit.
Cheers Horizon.
Best of luck, i'm sure something will popup soon enough.
I'd also consider things like input and its use. I.e. alot of models here will have HDMI inputs and may be 3d compliant. Getting a discontinued line for 42" tv that ISNT 3d complaint would be quite viable. Also look at the devices that you're plugging in. If its an old dvd player, then you won't need the latest connections (unless you want it to be future proof) etc etc. anyway.
