Hello everyone.

Have a look at my home network :
*i51.tinypic.com/de7bkg.jpg

It currently consists of:
A desktop connected by wire to router
A Laptop connected wirelessly to router.

Now I need to buy a LED smart TV (32 inch strictly), any brand, budget max 50 K.

This is what I plan to have and plan to do:
1. This is obvious that LED should support full HD (1080p)
2. It should be smart TV, my requirement are that it should be able to play audio/video content from the network. Even if it couldn't have internet apps (like panasonic/ samsung has) it would be fine. I can access that via CPU connected to LED, which I have described next.
3. I am also planning to connect the CPU directly to the LED , so as to save space at home and enjoy PC on big screen (movies/ game etc)
4. I also heard that TV can access network wirelessly. Is that possible that network can be accessed wirelessly? If yes, I also heard that a wireless dongle has to be purchased for same. Again, if yes, whats the price of same?
5. Also as mentioned above regarding PC connection, the TV should have VGA port, HDMI port, ample no of USB ports
6. As seen in diagram, I also have a 5.1 setup. Though I can connect it to the CPU which has 5.1 sound card, can the same speakers be connected to LED? Do they support 5.1 setup?

Whoaa..thats a lot of requirement.. Kindly help me in selecting one nice LED for same.

Thanks
