And some more philips

OK they are still making this a 100 Hz instead of 200 or even 240 Hz but that is the only minor thing of this LED TV (so you can easy upgrade since you can sell this to yourself and family as a energy saver) . Ok and probably the price. However it's still the one I want agains my white wall. The 3rd generation of the Aurea TV's. According to again Engadget they claim:



Showing off the latest in LED edge-lighting. This third generation set features the same transparent Active Frame now sporting 250 LEDs with a promise of "exact" Ambilight color matching" with what you see on the screen. The result, according to Philips and our own experience with Ambilight over the years, is a more immersive viewing experience -- or maybe the experience is just peculiar, we can never be too sure.

The set still features the same, albeit tweaked, motion sensitive remote control and adds Net TV for quick access to content from YouTube, eBay, TomTom and more depending upon your location.

As to the display, well, it's still 42-inches by the looks of things, with a Full HD (1920x1080) resolution, 100Hz refresh, and snappy 2-ms response as before. The box itself feature an integrated DVB-T/DVB-C/CI+ HDTV receiver, 5x HDMI 1.3a EasyLink inputs, WiFi, Ethernet, and a DLNA-compliant network link for accessing media off your PC. Coming soon, that's when.

Now just let's hope the DLNA client is a serious good one with a nice and snappy interface so it might even be able to replace the mediacenter in the living room (just have to add the tuners then to the home server for the pvr part)

Update:
