No. That said, I find it hard to believe that the picture quality for a film on it is "****" though

Strange, as its a current model in Sony's line up (replacement not out 'til October).

If this £3K LCD isn't current, I like to see one that is.... (and shame on Sony if its the case )

Some companies have already stopped making them, others have stopped selling them, so if thats your bag I should get one quickly before they arent available any more ..............

Have you ever seen a 36" CRT telly? Its f*****ing huge.

A mate of mine has just replaced his 42 Rear projection TV with a 37' Plasma and it takes 3-4 men to move his old one, its that big.

He cant even get it to the tip as it needs a lorry to ship the thing, it does look good where he has dumped it in the middle of his dining room though, his Mrs loves it.

Guys, I repeat...that's why rooms have corners! My soggy 50" LCD wastes not much more space than a 36" CRT.

Panasonic Pro do a 16:9 19" LCD that aint half bad but it's £2.2k and that's why people in the TV industry still rely on CRT for anything critical inc colour grading and picture quality asessement. Says it all.

Bought a 50" Phillips Plasma today in Makro for £999 +VAT. Cracking price! Not 1080P but takes HDMI.

I also got an upscaling DVD player free (that's mine as the screen is for work).

Cant believe the value (or the weight!!!)
