This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: For the price and the brand I can't complain. Nice picture and still learning what it's capable of doing. Very light and easy to assemble the base to the TV. It's a television for our bedroom so 720p was fine for us. That's what we had before and it's not that big of a deal...for a bedroom.
Cons: Don't really like the remote control layout but hey, I usually use the one for the cable box anyway.
Other Thoughts: Seems to have all of the bells and whistles. I like having the capablility of connecting a computer to it if the need arises. We got this as a replacement for our 32" Insignia that crapped out on us only after owning it for about a year. Hoping this Sony will be a bit more reliable. Like usual, Newegg's ordering process and shipping rocked.

Nice little TV

Pros: Great form factor, overall a slick looking TV as would be expected from Sony. The menu is relatively simple and intuitive and allows all the basic features you would expect, such as labeling inputs and hiding ones you're not using. I'm running this as a main TV in my housing unit running both a PS3 and a laptop output. The TV does great with the PS3, no visible game lag, great color and some minor adjustment capability. As a monitor extension it holds it's own pretty well. Colors are rich, little to no screen flicker and the auto adjustment feature centered the workspace perfectly.
Cons: Attachment to the base, though a metal to metal bracket with 4x set screws, seems a bit wobbly. I probably only notice this because my mounting situation is less than ideal, a bed side table in a CHU that moves every time you shut the door, however it is stable.
Other Thoughts: It's a solid little TV and I look forward to using it as a second TV at home. Good purchase.
