Correct me if Im wrong, I think you meant 60hz and 120hz.... that's what I have a 60hz 32", and Im happy with it, I know it's not the best but Im happy.

South Africa is a PAL region, the tv signal is 50hz. In south africa you use all your soruces in PAL as well? Here in Brazil something really strange happens, we are a PAL region as well, but only the open TV is PAl, all our sources like DVD and VideoGames are NTSC.

Yeah everything is PAL. I really feel for you being in Brazil with the techno lockdown they have (hope I don't offend). I usually think we're expensive compared to the US, but you have it much worse...

No you don't offend, you're only telling the truth about technology in Brazil. Paying 2500$ for a 40 W Bravia while in US people pay this for the 52 inches models is pretty terrible. Importing taxes are so high, they just double the price of everything related to technology and automobilistic, and the worst is that the corruption level is so high that the taxes don't bring anything good for us. And people really don't mind.

Lot's of people buys those overpriced TVs by financing, people use to finance a 1200$ 32 super basic LCD TV in 24x payments of 65$, people with more money finance more expensive televisions, but it's PRETTY rare to see someone paying anything whitout financing. I bought my PS3 financed in 10x of 70$. For gaming the situation is even worse.
