It isn't 1080i, but 720p.

This will give you 1080p for about the same price to $100 more based on net results. Plus you'll get the SXRD technology.

I've never had problems with Sony and prefer them to anyothers.

Two comments about that:
1) Get much work done at the office?
2) I got ours at Circuit City. You can go to their website and pay for it and then just pick it up at the store.

Hey perfect timing for this thread. I have recently moved into my new house and am looking for a new tv. I know nothing about tvs , but this thread is helping. My present tv is a 36" Sony, I believe it must be a "tube" type because it is heavy as hell and the depth is prolly 20". I only like SOny stuff , can someone steer me in the right direction . This is what i have.
Will be mounted in entertainment center built in wall , depth has to be less than 24".
The room is wired for surround sound.
The room is basically 20' x 28' , multiple couches.
The tv needs to be seen from quite a few angles . (if possible)
I am looking for dependability , doesnt have to be the latest techy model.
Pricing is definetly a factor , no more than a few thousand.
Any suggestions?

Thanks , doug

You need a ceiling mounted projector for a room that size. Otherwise, I'd recommend atleast a 60-65". We've got a Sony Super Wega 60" and it's great even when viewed not straight on. It's got HDMI and many other inputs.

Like Ken said, the set is 720p, not 1080p. This really only matters if you are a hardcore HD person and want the newest, latest and greatest or have a PS3, HD DVD player or Blu-Ray (otherwise you don't need 1080p.) No one is broadcasting 1080p, we don't have enough bandwidth, and the TV will downconvert 1080i (NBC, CBS, HDNet, CW) to 720p (ABC, FOX, ESPN) for display, but you will not notice it. If you just want a nice HD set, this will do the job for you.

This set is the 55" version of the set I have been looking at putting in my office for gaming. I think the set has a great picture. I also liked the pricing on it from Circuit City.
