most LCDs are HD ready, just not FULL HD

FULL HD LCDs are usually at least 40"

oh tis 1 i know... but both hubby n me dun tink it is time to buy full hd yet.. since tv signals r not fully hd n is not really established in sg yet.. unless we can get jap's quality network.. then more worth it to get full hd.. haha.. we're still quite far frm it yet.. wait for a longer while.. by then full hd prices will drop a lot as well! haha..

paint job in progress..

[gadgetgal 0]

xlan,

may I know when is paint job started?.

From what I know it is after tiling, cement base/sink support for kitchen and after aircon trunking right?.

or after aircon is installed?. is your kitchen cabinet up yet?. what about lighting?.

Sorry for asking so much question

was thinking to plan and know more in case I left out anything.

thanks!!

So far, I think your reno has been progressing very well and very smooth... congrats!!.

Hi One Post Wonder,

U right. It is only HD ready. Full HD is for 42" and above. Not enough money to buy 42" Full HD.

Currently, only Sony & LG has 1080p and i for 32" LCD so I settle for LG due to price issue.

I heard that the new technology of 2000 +++ P and I is coming out in 2008. Hopefully, this will reduce the price further so that i can get the full HD 42" in 2009.

Hi Xlan,

When I passed by your flat yesterday at 6pm, I notice that the sun actually shine directly onto your flat. Just curious to know if you feel very warm from the 西朝 。

gadgetgal, hehe.. 太看得起我了... i'm 1st time doing renov n dunno exactly what should do 1st n next.. but let me try to recall the sequence of wat my ID planned n did in real...

1) lay SCV points across the room.. on the floor.. cos later can b cover up by the flooring..

2) then HDB did the cement screeding in my room..

3) tiling of homos in rest of the areas..

4) kitchen cabinet base

5) aircon men do the laying of pippings, etc..

6) citygas install the gas pippings n connect n install the water heater

7) painting of walls

8) tat's all as of yest.. hahaha..

Hi, XLAN.

Why need to lay SCV points? I thought it is provided for all the rooms including the kitchen and household shelter by HDB? Sorry if I am asking a silly qns..I really dun know...

Thank you.
