    Smart TV is pretty cool, I thought it would be a gimmick, but I've used it more than I thought. Got me an LG passive 3D TV a few weeks back (LG are the passive 3D kings)

    Netflix is on there, as is Lovefilm, as is YouTube. Handy if you want to pay and watch a film on demand.

    You can also control it using your smart phone which is cool, change channels, volume etc. Can use phone to control mouse cursor and type if you use it to surf the web. Can go on Saddo's on it, haven't tried the porn yet.

    It also has Skype built in, so you can Skype through TV straight away.

    For £500 now you can pick up something really decent.

    I don't use the 3D much, but it is impressive when you sit and watch films, because we got a passive set glasses are free (when stolen from cinema) or about 50p each on eBay.

    I have got plenty of those 3D glasses that we get from the cinema, so we can use them?

    Paasive TV is opposite to smart TV?

    What make and model would you recommend. I am looking for 37inch?

    Passive is the type of 3D, there are two types, active and passive.

    Active glasses are battery powered and work by using a shutter effect to open and close at a rapid speed. They cost about £40 each are quite heavy as they are battery powered.

    Passive are the same as the ones in the cinema, so yeah you can just use those.

    Active is better quality picture (I didn't think by much, but it technically should be twice as good), but the flickering can be eye straining.

    Depends on how big your lounge is and how far you are sat from the screen. I'd want a minimum of 42 inches, just so it didn't need replacing for a good few years.

    The main choice you need to make is size and 3D or not, after that its easy!

    I'm pretty sure you have to accept a Skype call before they can see you.

    Porn should only come on when told to, to be safe, Internet history - DELETE!

    Shop round get a good bracket, try E bay remember there is not a lot of weight in flat screen TV's,
    mount it on a solid wall, not on a stud wall or plaster board.

    don't waste your money on a bracket and spirit levels mate... I have never put one on the wall but no more nails from poundland should do the trick

    many moons ago I put a outside trade stall together on blackpool bonny St Market with no more nails for the season of trade there and it lasted one night... my family still take the piss about it

    I once put wall paper up and was a bit light with the paste. Later that evening whilst we were eating the wall paper came off in front of all the family. I have not lived that one down either.
