The same model seems to have two listings on flipkart, the one below which I used is now out of stock.

But the other one is @ a very good price of 48k only. If you have axis bank debit/credit card, you get extra 10% off, looks like the offer is valid for another 3 hrs.

Dear Vbhoj74/karthi1000,

Does Vu have 5.1 passthrough via optical out port while playing USB movies/hdmi in from HD STB?

Yes, I've it disabled. Though I'm not sure that MEMC enabled = 120hz refresh, I guess it is a motion enhancement algorithm which is best kept off.

Hi Vbhoj74/karthi1000,

Thanks for posting your reviews and descriptions. I am planning to buy a 40" Vu TV soon. Everything sounds right, but I have a few doubts remaining:

* If you connect a laptop or tablet to the TV (through HDMI), how does the text appear. Is it crisp at 1080 resolution?

* Is there an audio-only mode? Sometimes, we like to keep the audio on but put the display to sleep (to save power). Is this possible in Vu?

Can somebody please give a link for monitor display drivers for this TV
