Reviews/Comments:
  • Dell had this at $628 last April.
  • Input lag is definitely noticeable on FPS games
  • computer based video content, DVDs, and Blu-ray don't seem to look as good out of the box (subjectively speaking, not as sharp, colors seem off - but maybe can be fixed with some tweaking).
  • apps like NBA gametime, CNN, CNBC, are a little buggy.
  • Overall  happy with the TV as a smaller LED solution wall mounted for the bedroom. The Google TV experience, while buggy, gives me the option to browse the internet without an HTPC.
  • Amazon Review for Sony Google TV
