I'll attack your show!

So I am a nerd as you all know and as a nerd I have to watch the biggest NERD-FEST show on television. That is Attack of the Show on G4. I try to never miss an episode. It is an hour long show where they review what is hot in movies, television, internet, games, and technology. I know I’m lame but at least I am up on all the new stuff. One review that they did recently was on the Sony Bravia 52" 3D HX909 HDTV. Yeah we have brought 3D out of the theater and into our homes! I am not sure it is worth it though.

Here is the review and the link to the video of the review:

•This Bravia features Sony's new "monolithic" design, which makes this one of the sleekest TV we've seen.
•It measures just under 3" thick.
•Some inputs are on the back and some are on the side (like 2 HDMIs), so you might not have to drill holes in your wall if you wall-mount it.
•The monolith design also gives the whole TV a uniform feel.
•Not only is this TV 3D, but also can up-convert normal 2D content to 3D.
•It also have streaming Bravia content, all of which works well.
•Sony's 3D is good but not the best we've seen.
•The ghosting of a second image (or crosstalk) is visible some of the time, and the glasses flicker just enough to annoy you, but it's not all the time.
•It's not better than Panasonic's 3D but definitely more watchable than Samsung's.
•The 2D to 3D conversion was also interesting, but not necessarily something you'd want to watch for long periods.
•The Bravia Internet content is always something we really like, because there's so much of it. The interface is also very easy to use.
•Somehow, the dynamic contrast ratio is not 5 million or 7 million to 1, but infinite, which translates into an amazing picture.
•This has some of the smoothest picture quality we've seen, meaning that fast moving scenes look amazing because of the details you can pick out.
•Blacks are incredibly deep and colors are vivid and accurate.
•Our one complaint is there is a little bit of washout from the LED backlight in darker scenes.
•Other than that, it's practically perfect.
Price
•$3,600.00
Rating
•4 Seals of Approval out of 5.
