Just had an intersting read of the 2009 pricing. The BV7-40 without DVD and speaker is priced at 4960 Euro, the BS3 at roughly 6700 Euro.

As far as I know, the BV7-40 includes the BS3? So you get a huge discount on the BS3 and a TV for free on top?

Or do I think in the wrong direction?

P.S. If the this pricing is right, the BV7 will replace my BV3 in my office quite soon...

Yes Karsten,

It's a very good price !

I'd like to replace my BV3 too with a flat screen.

But, if we go for the BV7-40 "naked", we must already have 2 stereo speakers and buy a stand.

Do you think it's not a problem if we haven't got a central speaker ?

Personaly, I think the central speaker is integral to the television, and your surround sound in future.

Go for a central speaker as well!!

Fortunately, I do not need a center speaker in my office, I have two BL3 there, and the TV is for Videoconf calls and presentations. Furtermore, a projector will be attached to it as well.

So a perfect fit for me!

Same for the stand, it will be wall mounted with one of the STB baracket solutions.
