Just a quick question. I've been looking at this TV (http://www.funai.de/English/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=14&category_id=1&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=3). Now before anyone says anything, yes I know it's rubbish TV compared to the top quality ones, but Makro have it on sale for £199.99 (well £230 something with VAT added) so I thought it might be worth investing in while I wait the HD revolution to explode and then invest in a proper full on HDTV.
So, my question is this. I've noticed that it doesn't have a Component Input, so does this mean I wouldn't be able to get HD graphics with the cables provided with my Xbox 360? And if yes, can I buy any cables to get HD graphics with my Xbox 360 on that TV?
Cheers for the help in advance :) (M)

I think the only way of getting HD output with that TV for a 360 is with the Elite (and HDMI output), otherwise there's no other possible way.

For a few quid more you can get the HDTV that I got.

Picture quality on all sources I have tried has been great. Xbox 360 connected through Component and VGA are really high quality. Refresh rate of 6.5 ms is ideal for gaming as well. One of the best buys I have made this year.

Thanks for the help guys. Went to check out the TV I posted about on Saturday and low and behold, it has component inputs, so I bought one :)
Yay for High Definition :)
Thanks again.
