$1,150.00 Released March, 2010

Product Shot 1 The Pros:LED backlighting - energy efficient, environmentally friendly, allows for a thinner cabinet design. 100Hz refresh rate - good for eliminating motion artifacts, especially good for European users (PAL is broadcast at 50Hz). Full 1080p.

The Cons:Non-standard 100Hz refresh rate - won't display 24p content perfectly. Cheap looking glossy black bezel and stand - picks up dust and fingerprints easily.
