NEW TV's, USB Record/Live Pause

[cemeterybird]

Hi - Up until recently I have been using my old TV with a Digihome Freeview Box in our dining room, which enabled us to record and pause live tv. However, the FV Box recently 'died' and as the TV is pretty old, we thought we'd buy a new one and 'live pause' is quite important to us as we get constant interruptions (another story).

I was shocked however, to realise how few TV's offer this faciltiy! I cannot find any, other than Tesco's Technikas 23" and smaller that do it (I already have one of these in my bedroom and am happy with it) but was hoping for at least a 32".

Does anyone have experience of this problem (answers in simple terms please as techno talk to me is like a foreign language:-)

Thanks.

GOOD NEWS!::
The Argos catalogue describes the 32" HD-Ready Sharp LC32DH510 TV (£429.99) as follows:
"This TV features:
Time shift function allows you to pause and rewind live TV ;
USB Media Player - lets you play back pictures, movies and music from a USB device"

BAD NEWS :(
I'm looking in the Autumn/Winter 2010 catalogue. That TV is no longer listed on the Argos website.

GOOD NEWS AGAIN!:
It's available here (on special offer at just £279.98, with free delivery, until Friday):

If you buy a freeview tv you will only be restricted to that one channel. You would be far better off buying a freeview digi box with twin tuners that also allows you to do what you want.

Thanks Buenchico - we now have that Sharp TV installed and working!!
Got it for a bargain price of £249.99!
Postdog - thanks for your recommendation but having just had a digibox with our old TV, we felt the need for a new LCD plus we really only need the live pause because we are always getting interrupted, living in a cemetery as we do;-)
