I have a 42" Sony Bravia... works well.

Get a Sony bravia, Sony needs the money

To be honest, if you get a new sony HDTV over 32" you can't go very wrong.

If you want more detailed advice feel free to ask.

Hmm, good question.  I bought it earlier this year for my home theatre.  It has a "Bravia" writen on transparent plastic in the bottom left corner, and of course "Sony" in the middle under the screen.  That's about all I know about the series, because I can't find the manual.

If it has a transparant band around it and is 65", it is likely the X series, that was the top of the line model

Yeah that's the one I think.  It is the best TV I have ever watched or owned bar none.  Funny enough the best CRTV I ever owned was a 35" Sony.  That sucker had a beautiful picture, but it was a beast to move... it weighed a ton.

I love Sony TVs.  I have to admit, while I'm not a console fanboy by anymeans, I am a Sony TV fanboy.  I've had Sony TVs my entire life.

Although, the new Toshiba TVs that were just released are pretty darn amazing.  I know Pioneer makes a great set too, but they are just too dang expensive.  Not worth the cost-to-quality difference in my opinion.

Agree with you and thats a dang nice set you have.  I have 3 40" sony's, xbr4, last years v series and the new z series.  I must say though, the cheapest one is the V series and it has one of the best SD pictures of any LCD TV out there(this is the 40v3000 which is last years model and much better than the v4100 of 2008), much better than the XBR and z series.  Blacks are better on Z series and XBR has the best overall HD picture.  Funny thing is, I don't use 120hz on the 2 TV's that have it because I actually think it horrendously kills the blacks level and in sports it doesnt help the little bit of motion blur that I see anyways.  Only game I have ever played with a motion blur issue is GTA4 when the camera angle changes abruptly and is close to the character.

I'm actually trying to get my parents to get me an HDTV, definitely Sony, but I am not sure whether to go for the V series or W series. The latter is the more expensive, but I think it is better, and it does have XMB!

Yeah, I think my Sony doesn't really impress me too much in the SD program department either.  Although, when it comes to movies, I use my PS3 to upconvert them, so they actually come out pretty nice.  But on SD Directv channels, I find myself pretty unimpressed.  But here in a few months, nearly all of the remaining SD channels will disappear anyway, so it's a mute point for me.

As for the 120hz feature, I like it, but my wife despises it... therefore, as with all spousal comprimises, she wins. LOL

I've never really had a motion blur problem except with some old SD movies.  I usually opt to turn the motion enhancer on, but keep the cinema mode off.. it seems to be a pretty good combination for me to avoid motion blur.
