Great TV at a great price!
Got this TV back in November '08 in anticipation of the digital over the air channels switch over. Now I get these channels in HD!! Thanks to the built-in tuner. Recently purchased a PS3 as well and the Blu-Ray movies on this TV are exceptional. One of my best investments by far.

Amazing
Pros: It's all good!
Cons: Owners manual could be better descriptive about the features.
After a LOT of research including Consumer Reports I had narrowed my choice to this TV and one "other" brand. I finally found a store that carried both and when I saw them side by side Sony was the clear winner. This set is relatively easy to set up and absolutely beautiful picture especially after learing how to tweak the settings. The sound is amazing for a TV. Couldn't be happier with our choice. Thank you Sony for an amazing product.

As expected from Sony
Pros: Great picture
Cons: Design not practicle
I've only had this products for a few weeks but it is exactly what I come to expect from any Sony product. The picture quality is amazing! However, the main controls of the unit are located on the top where it is unreachable when mounted. All my previous Sony TVs had a wake up and clock display feature which this unit fails to include. Overall I'm satisfied with the full high definition experience.

Great Service, Great TV
Pros: Great Picture, great styling
Cons: Slow for screen to turn on
About the only complaint I have with my 40" LCD Sony TV is how slow it takes for the screen to come on. Usually 5+ seconds of black screen before you see a picture. BUT, the beautiful piano black styling of the surround and the crystal clear picture of this LCD FAR outweigh any negatives. Only had this TV for a few weeks now, but did I mention the picture is amazing!
