| Wide screen TV's have different settings on how the picture can be viewed. It sounds like they need to adjust these settings. Also it differs across dvd movies or watching the TV.

| oh yeah, my widescreen tv has a little button to change the aspect of the screen to 16:9, auto, justified etc. The button name is 'aspect' on a Panasonic.

| I recently bought a Conia 42" Plasma for just under $1400, I was looking at the top of the range LG CRT for about the same Price. I spoke to the salesman and he explained that a lot of the "Lesser known" brands, in fact use panels made by the bigger manufacturers (The unit I bought has a Samsung panel in it) I was a little bit concerned about buying a non-brand unit, but the image is exceptional compared to other more expensive units I saw.

Shopped around heaps before getting my 32" & ended up with a Soniq (& matching box).
They use an LG engine & have higher specs (resolution) than most of the 'name brands' of similar price.
A hint- go to competitors & get their best price then go to JB & play hardball... I ended up with the whole setup and a 5 yr extended warrantee (invaluable!) for $200 under the price of even an Acer or Thomson screen!
And the verdict? COuldn't be happier with the result!

All comments are very helpful.
I ended up buying LCD. With a very good offer in Bing Lee end of last year.
Free small flat screen TV when I bought LCD
Very happy with it.
