more info from Sony

Behind the sleek piano black exterior of the Sony KDL-40S35100 40" BRAVIA S-Series LCD TV, lies a host of advanced features at an affordable pricepoint, that represent the evolution of Sony HDTV. 1080p resolution is the highest HD standard available, offering maximum performance from your Blu-ray player and gaming consoles such as PlayStation3.

But the supporting cast of features are what makes the TV extraordinary. Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) With Dynamic Backlight Control bring the sort of deep, rich blacks and shadows that seemed unattainable on an LCD panel even a short time ago.

24pTrue Cinema allows the the panel to display content such as Blu-ray at the same frame rate that it was shot, 24 fps, resulting in a more genuine cinematic look. The Xross Media Bar provides a logical graphic user interface offering choices in screen modes and settings.

Bravia Link modules represent a milestone in seamless integration and lifestyle enhancement features. Bravia DVD Link gives back precious shelf space by adding the player behind your TV, not your A/V cabinet. Bravia Input Link provides four additional HDMI connections to your TV and Bravia Wireless Link joins all of your HD audio and video wirelessly, without the tangle of wires and confusion of multiple remotes.

3 HDMI inputs ensure maximum resolution, uncompressed video and multi-channel audio, as well as seamless transition between your HD sources. A PC input allows use of the KDL-40S5100 as a computer monitor while 2 component inputs offer additional HD support.

Lastly, the KDL-40S5100 begins to recoup its purchase price the moment you plug it in. It exceeds Energy Star 3.0 requirements by incorporating features such as Standby Mode and Dynamic Backlight Control which uses an energy saving light sensor to adjust the screen's brightness based on the surrounding light.
