Plays Hot TV Deals.

Chanelle Hayes makes fake sex tape.

Oh dear I've stayed away from the Chanelle Hayes sex tape story for long enough but now its time to make some potentially libelous comments about it. Firstly the video is fake, well set up (same thing) and is just there to promote her ridiculous single release. Secondly, erm there is no secondly as it goes, she's just a Z list idiot. Lets hope her singing career is as short lived as her television one.

42 Inch Plasma TV for £499.99.

In case no one has noticed the little button at the top of cheap televisions I thought I'd make anyone hunting for a bargain deal on a new plasma television know that Argos are currently selling the Acoustic Solutions 42 inch HD Plasma TV for just £499.99. No idea what the proper model number of the television is but it features 2 HDMI sockets, 2 scart sockets, 10,000:1 contrast ratio. Two things do confuse me about this plasma TV at Argos are 1 in the picture it actually shows a PROMAX television and not an Acoustic Solutions one and 2 you can add 3 year breakdown cover which (and I'm not joking) isn't valid for plasma televisions lol. On the other hand Argos can offer finance and insurance deals on my products.

Sony Extra Slim OLED Television.

Ok its a bit hard to tell what the second picture below is but I can assure you its a HD television. To be more specific its an OLED TV made by Sony and they have recently been showing off its incredible panel thickness of just 0.3mm! I thought the Macbook Air was thin but this is taking flat screens to a whole new level.

Loewe Connect 37 Media Full-HD+ DR+.

Ok the Loewe Connect 37 Media Full-HD+ DR+ is a silly name for a television but it is one gorgeous looking 37 inch LCD TV. The modern contemporary design does come at a not so cheap price of around 2k so is maybe more for the design conscious amongst us. As you would expect from a high end LCD TV it has 720p, 1080i and 1080p HD formats but more interesting is the built in PVR and a 180GB hard disk.

Hayden Panettiere was bullied.

Sexy star of the American hit TV show Heroes has revealed she was bullied at school because she was an actress. She wasn't in Heroes at the time but two US television soaps called One Life To Live and Guiding Light in the early nineties. Bet all her former classmates are pretty jealous of the gorgeous Hayden Panettiere now.

Sony fills Miami with foam for TV Advert.

Sony has taken the team behind its LCD Bravia TV adverts and set the to task with its new television commercial for its range of digital cameras and camcorders. I have to say it does look as impressive as the Bravia TV commercials after watching the video of 'Foam City' on the Sony website in which they fill a section of the American city of Miami (Florida) with foam (obviously) lol.

Top 10 Blu-ray DVDs 18/04/08.

Haven't really touched on Sony's Blu-ray DVD format for a while now, with so much happening in the world of HD televisions its hard to find te time of day to blog about everything. But hopefully I can start to put things right, HD TVs deserve HD movies after all. I've put together this list of top selling Blu-ray DVDs from play (and not amazon UK for a change!). Obviously the top 10 is effected by sales, deals and promotions that play currently has on.

Samsung collaborate with Armani on HDTV.

It seems the fad for electronic manufacturers and fashion houses combining forces to get consumers to buy more of their products isn't going to go away. Although mainly confined to mobile phones it seems now that televisions are the next to suffer this fate after news of Samsung and Armani collaborating on a LCD HDTV have been announced. The TV as you would expect is 1080p and will be available in both 46 and 52 inch models. I have to admit (and it pains me to say this) that the Samsung Armani LCD HD TV does actually looks like a really nice modern design although I would still prefer a Bang and Olufsen television myself. Hold on I hear you say Bang and Olufsen aren't cheap televisions at all, well I'm affraid neither will this designer offering from Samsung.

Skins series 2 final episode.

This week is the final episode of Skins series 2 on E4 and Channel 4 so don't forget to set your digi boxes to record what I think is the best show on TV at the moment (or pre order the Skins series 2 DVD if your addicted like me). After Chris died last week Skins is set up for a good final episode and I'm a bit sad to see it leave our television screens as this will be the last time the current cast will be involved after producers revealed series 3 will have a totally new cast!

Best selling 37" to 40" LCD TVs [April 08].

Back in August 07 we did an article on cheap television showing the best selling 37 to 40 inch LCD TVs. So 8 months on I think its about time we did it again and see what new LCD TVs make the grade. Again the top 25 is collated from Amazon sale popularity of 37" to 40" tellys and can easily be influenced by special deals and sales currently going on. Nice to see that every one of these LCD TVs is a HDTV too.

New HDTVs coming soon.

There will never be a good time to buy a new HDTV be it LCD or plasma, actually forget televisions for a second as this could be applied to almost all electronics technology. The reason being is once you buy the hottest new gadget or TV on the market within 6 months you can be pretty sure it will be out of date! However techradar have given us all a heads up by letting us know 5 HDTVs coming to the market soon which are well worth a second look including the gorgeous looking Samsung 750 LCD and 750 PDP HD TV sets (see picture below).

Virgin Media adds Sopranos to HD on demand.

Virgin Media's excellent video on demand service has had a huge boost this week with the announcement of two highly acclaimed US TV shows being made available on the service in HD. (If you haven't already its time to go buy a HDMI cable and use your HD LCD TV how it is supposed to be used). This high definition shows include the excellent WW2 drama Band Of Brothers and the award winning gangster TV series The Sopranos (I watched the End Game finale last night and I thought it was the achilles heal of the whole production, sorry).
