I couldn't commnent on that but might I also suggest you check out PC World for LCD TV's? They often beat Curry's on price with those at the minute. Just a thought.
Actually I'm trying to steer him away from Dixons Stores Group *cough* Currys.Digital in general (and that includes PC World). I used to work for them, and even knowing exactly how all of the systems work, still managed to have a situation where they had my iBook for 10 weeks and didn't fix it under their coverplan/PC Performance.
I've found out from first-hand experience that their PC Performance coverplan isn't worth the paper it's written on. I'd always kind-of known, but it's different when you're faced with the unbelievable shoddiness.
My brother is thinking of some sort of getting some kind of extended cover for his TV, so I'm leaning towards suggesting he buys from John Lewis (where he'd get a five-year extended guarantee for "free", i.e. their mark-up) or from Richer Sounds (which is remarkably price-competitive on TVs at the moment, and where the cover doesn't cost an arm and a leg).
