    flat screen tv + internet ?

    Currently looking for a flat screen tv that also has built in internet - eg I can use it with maybe a wireless keyboard/mouse for internet browsing. Ideally would also be able to connect it to my home lan so I can download to or access stuff from an external hard drive.

    Does anyone have anything setup like this and/or recommendations ?

    Buy a cheap PS3 and replace the hard drive for a 250gb one.

      I think this functionality is quite common on most sets these days. I have a Sony Bravia (and a PS3) with this setup. I don't use it as often as I thought I would although I do occasionally hook it up to my desk top via http://www.orb.com which makes browsing photos, accessing media etc good fun on a large quality screen.

        Yup - I was thinking the Bravia + PS3 route - Thanks.
