Panasonic Viera TC-L37X2 32" HDTV
Panasonic TC-L32X2 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV with iPod Dock is a 720p unit: but don't worry.

It has exceptional viewing from 178-degrees across, and was actually designed to coincide with an iPod (an external iPod Dock is included). Game Mode allows the picture during gaming to be in sharp focus with high dark/light contrast, and this HDTV also has an interlinking feature for Blu-Ray disc players and AV devices. Insert your camera's memory card to view slideshows of pictures.
