Amazon is Amazing!!! January 7, 2009
I had been looking to buy the Sony Bravia XBR KDL40XBR6 online for some time and Amazon had the right price and great customer service. They were very helpful with my questions and the delivery service was great. The TV is also that I expected from Sony(Great!).
VERY PLEASED... January 7, 2009

I'll be brief here because a lot of reviewers have spoken the truth here upon which I purchased this product. The true test, in my view, is connecting it to my computers' HDMI outlets. The picture quality is just awesome. I also hooked up the Blue-Ray DVD player that I received with this purchase and again, the picture quality is awesome. The sound is also very crisp and I may connect this HDTV to my home stereo later. I replaced this from a Regza Toshiba 32" monitor (which has a combo DVD player). At about 8-9 feet from this monitor, the 40" is ideal for me and a 46" would have been an overkill. 4 HDMI ports is a definite plus, especially for gaming.
PIP: The PIP and P & P functions require a cable connection.
THE DELIVERY: AMAZON.COM'S DELIVERY WAS FIVE STARS AS WELL. SHIPMENT WAS VERY QUICK, THE DELIVERY GENTLEMAN WAS EXCELLENT AND MADE SURE THAT THE ITEM WORKED PROPERLY BEFORE HE LEFT. HE ALSO HELPED TO UNPLUG MY OLDER MONITOR. FIVE STARS OUT OF FIVE THERE AS WELL.
IN SUMMATION, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AMAZON.COM. I ALSO BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM AMAZON.COM.
This set is a perfect compliment to a bedroom. January 6, 2009

Recently acquired this amazing lcd set for my bedroom. The XBR line is one of the finest Sony has to offer and I couldn't wait to get my hands on this beauty when a saw it on sale during this past holiday season. Let me tell you, it's more than I expected from a television set and it is the perfect accent to a bedroom or even a living room for that matter. Not just this tv but the whole XBR line has so much to offer as far as lcd's go.
If you're a movie lover, you will WANT to get your hands on a blu ray player. If you're a gamer, like me, this tv will make you drool incessantly. You won't be disappointed!
White Glove Delivery Service is a Joke! January 5, 2009
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Sony HDTV lives up to its billing in every way; however, Amazon is advertising "White Glove Delivery Service" for 40" and larger TVs. All that happened when the CEVA delivery team arrived, which was within the window adverised, was that one person asked where I wanted the television. He then set the box down on the carpet, ripped it open and asked me to provide him a screwdriver to attach the base to the set. When questioned as to why he didn't have one, he said it was in the truck (located 20' from the door). He plugged in the power cord and said, "See, it has power. Sign the delivery receipt here." I found a pen, signed the form and asked where the checklist was that Amazon stated would be provided to guide me through ensuring the television was in working order. He stated he knew nothing about a checklist and left. They also said they didn't remove packing material. It was only after I removed the shipping box did I discover that the bottom of the box was extremely dirty and and left dark marks on the off-white carpeting wherever it touched. The carpet had to be cleaned to remove the smudges left by the box.
Amazon should carefully re-evaluate customer (lack of) satisfaction with their choice of carriers. If there is no improvement in "White Glove" delivery, Amazon should expect CEVA to have a negative impact on customers reordering this type of merchandise from Amazon.
