Great TV, no 100hz, but to be fair i'm not a fan of the 100hz or 200hz stuff as it always seems to make things look like an old-e-time-e wild west film, with things moving un-naturally quickly. This set doesn't seem to suffer any motion-blur or anything like that so long as you use the correct picture setting (movie, sport etc.)
The bravia internet linkage left me a bit underwhelmed, I can play music from my laptop, but it doesn't seem to want to play any videos downloaded from the internet, I think they are the wrong format. The internet applications are pretty boring and also quite slow to load, I can work out what the time is somwhere in the world before the world clock fires up to tell me! I have heard netflix et.c may be coming to some bravia internet models but knowing my luck the KDL-40V5500 won't be one of them!
Good healthy number of HDMIs etc. and an audio out which works great for me as I can use the volume on the TV to control the volume of my home cinema saving mucking around with remotes (did require a bit of fiddling with the options to get this going tho), and no echo on this feature which I heave heard on other sets, such as samsungs.
Overall great TV and cam bundled with 3 year extended warranty which can't be bad.
