Review: I got my Sony Bravia 40" LCD TV about a month ago and I have to say that I am very impressed with the quality of the picture. It is completely stunning. The picture contrast, brightness, noise reduction and sharpness are all configurable and by far the best I've seen on any LCD or plasma TV. The response rate is excellent and I would recommend this product.
I have currently only used it with my Sky+ box (via scart lead) and DVD player (via component input) so I've not got around to trying out the inbuild FreeView decoder. Best quality is achieved with component input and a DVD player. It is awesome - just like being at the cinema. This television has no shortage of inputs with three scart inputs, component input, video composite and HDMI. The only input that I would have liked to have seen is either a DVI or VGA - but you can get DVI to HDMI cables, so that is not great disadvantage.
It is a little pricey, but you do get the impression that you are paying for a quality product and not just a state of the art premium.
