Pros: good picture and sound, when it was operable
Cons: failed to work at all as of the 41st day of ownership

Pros: Perfect picture quality. Great speakers for a TV.
Cons: Definitely heavy. Remote could be laid out more intuitively.

Pros: Perfect picture, size, twin-tuner PIP, next-generation HDTV ready!
Cons: Bigggg Mama and its HEAVY...poor warranty
Summary: I've come to the conclusion that I'm too good at spending money. I'm begining to think that my readers (you) must have a field day reading my reviews and either thinking "gosh, this spoiled brat" or "gosh, this guy must be in HOCK for all the toys he ... read more

Pros: Great picture, nice PIP and favorite functions
Cons: HEAVY! Can only label a few channels
Summary: I had some trouble deciding whether to buy this TV. I needed a new TV for my living room, but wasn't sure if it was worth the money to spring for a Digital TV. I saw this set and Sony's equivalent, non-digital set side by side. I was watching the same ... read more

Pros: good picture and hookups for accessories
Cons: the steady sound option does not work
Summary: I bought this a little over 3 years ago and I am really disappointed in Sony too. The TV is shutting off on it's own about every minute and sometimes less. This shouldn't happen to an expensive HDTV, or any other TV as a matter of fact. I have been
