I bought a Samsung LE52F96BD which hasn't arrived yet but got speaking to the tv salesman about the Samsung LE52A656 (http://gizmodo.com/341062/samsungs-high+end-lcds-for-2008-series-6-and-7-hdtvs-get-ethernet-amber-tint-but-no-leds-wtf). It's the latest LCD for 2008 but doesn't have LED. :/
What the fuck do I do?
Price difference?
Says the new one also is shite with sunlight.

The newer is around £500 cheaper but it's 100Hz. I'll rarely be on it during the day so sunlight isn't really a factor but the LED on the other one seems cool.

I went for the Samsung LE52A656 as the F96 has some problems according to AVforums & is discontinued. Series 7 is out Mayish so I'll look at that when it comes.

Anyone with series 5/6 Samsung LCD download the firmware fix on Avforums. Works a treat.
