IDTVs or Integrated Digital TVs have an onboard digital TV tuner and MPEG-2/MPEG-4 video decoder to receive high-quality 1080i HD broadcasts. Crystal-clear visuals and Dolby Digital surround sound aside, you'll also have an onscreen electronic program guide for an at-a-glance overview of the current program schedule and listing.

Such panels have really blossomed in 2009 with even more vendors such as Panasonic joining Samsung, Sony, LG and Philips in the competition, while others, including Sharp, are scaling back their IDTV lineups. Nevertheless, our latest top 10 comprise most new market entries save for the Bravia X4-series which was launched last year. Kickstart your road to digital nirvana with these highly rated offerings now.
