Evesham intros Freeview-equipped 47-inch 1080p LCD in the UK

Evesham -- best known for its fleshed-out lineup of notebooks -- is delving into the TV realm by dropping a bit (47 inches, to be exact) of 1080p love to the blokes across the pond. Sporting an ultrathin 5.43-inch enclosure, the plainly-named 47INCHLCD sports a 16:9 aspect ratio, 1,920 x 1,080 resolution, 1600:1 contrast ratio, 550 cd/m2 brightness, 8-millisecond response time, and a built-in analog / Freeview (DVB-T) hybrid tuner. The panel also touts a pair of 10-watt stereo speakers along with a bevy of inputs, including VGA, HDMI, component, S-Video, and audio in / out. Those lucky enough to live in the good ole UK can pick up the 47INCHLCD right now for £1,899 ($3,592).

How can it be that cheap? There must be a catch. Normally, 42inch LCDs that are full-HD (1920 x 1080 resolution) cost at least �2500. Hang on, why am i complaining about this?

Until eveSHAM makes good on the warranty for the last product I bought from them, I must warn;

eveSHAM does not honor it's warranties and is horrible to deal with. They have no US presence and no contact info. Once their tech support (outsourced to a Caleris call center) decides to ignore you, you are just dead in the water.

Do yourself a huge favor and avoid eveSHAM no matter how cheap the product is.
