I added 2 more questions to this template to clarify things further.
Now the thing is I travel a lot and my better-half usually spends her time by watching movies. (Not that I get any extra attention when I'm home.) We're bored of our 21" CRT. I'm not, she is.
So I want to give her a TV on her B'day which is due in 2 weeks. She watches a lot of movies. And thanks to ACT in Bangalore sometimes she downloads 2-3 movies every day. So ideally the TV should have a USB input which can play all the formats (MKVs, BRrip AVI, flv, etc). Can the TV that I've chosen play all those formats. And is it a good enough buy for the next 4-5 years? Anything better that I should get instead of that. I say this because even a more feature rich 32" TV will do for me.
