I am contemplating changing the TV in my room and instead of having a separate external monitor I am am thinking of an all in one solution... herein lies the problem or questions.

Technically, I dont need a "TV" because if i get a HD set top cable box its HDMI and it would also have audio outputs so it would work with ANY HD screen (and speaker system)with a TV tuner or not.. and where I am we do not have terrestrial broadcasts anyways so everything goes thru the cable box... so.... why the need for a tuner....

now.. thing is.. they only make plain on tunerless HD screens (non tvs) up to a certain size.. any bigger than 24 or 25" and you are talking a hell of a lot more money, then it would just make sense to buy a 32" TV...

Is anyone following me or am I just rambling, so I am looking for a full HD screen, as big as possible, bigger the better, preferably w/o a tuner for a little money as possible so far balancing price and size I have found this:

Anyone has any other suggestions?
