The near-unpronounceable 42PF9831D LCD TV from Philips utilizes the company's Clear LCD system with Ambilight Full Surround and Pixel Plus 3HD processing for the best audio visual experience at home. The Ambilight Full Surround is able to project lights independently from 4 sides of the screen to provide a continuous surround lighting effect that claims to improve on contrast and perceived picture detail. Will that cast extra reflections on the screen in the process? Clear LCD reduces motion blur while improving black level performance for sharper moving images. This cool TV is HD-ready and comes with an integrated digital tuner, a 7-in-1 memory card reader, and Ethernet & USB support. Expect to pay around £3500 for one of these babies.
