Reviews of the Sony KP-46WT500

CNET Review
The Good: Solid video processing with CineMotion 3:2 pull-down; 46-inch, 16:9, HDTV-capable rear-projector; 480p and 1080i display capability; 3D-YC comb filter; two-tuner picture-in-picture mode; relatively inexpensive.
The Bad: No independent input memory; tabletop design is an awkward, in-between height; nonremovable protective screen.
The Bottom Line: A great performer, especially after calibration, this smaller, midpriced, big-screen TV sets a high standard.
