I bought this from amazon back in october , and it is the market leader.the only reason this is not a 1080p is because sky broadcast in 1080i and will do for the next 10 years.this tv can be upgraded to 1080p via firmware upgrade.
Sky's 1080i broadcast is suspect , look at sky1 hd channel , its pathetic, but the football hd channels look fantastic on this tv , no motion blur.
3 hdmi ports ... fantastic , bravia theatre sync again fantastic , i have a ps3 and sonys all in 1 5.1 surround unit , plug n play with no wires.xbox 360 looks and sounds fantastic.
All i can say is '' this is the market leader the rest play catch up and at this price you wont go wrong.. buy it''.
superb value for money November 17, 2007

Yes, this tv is not 1080/full HD, but I love it nonetheless. Blu ray movies look absolutely stunning, and i am very impressed with the freeview picture.
I spend months looking around and chose this model over the W2000 which would have been 1080, because the SD picture is much better on the D3000 in my opinion.
I bought it for 750 and believe me, this is superb value for money.

Well I waited & waited for this tv, yes it's good with blu ray, as a pc monitor but not really that good for normal tv digital or analogue.
Unless you have sky with the odd hd channel, watch loads of blu ray or hd dvd's you don't have anything to benefit. Small detail or dark scenes seems to give pixelated, shadowed, low definition pictures.
All these tv's are advertised as hd ready, we are ready, but the providers of tv shows aren't, yet.
The ads that say make sure your tv is ready for digital, if buying a new tv make sure it's digital, hd ready tv's etc etc is pointless right now & a lie as in you can buy an analogue tv & watch digital no problem, that's what the set top box does.
The built in freeview is quite poor, when you change channel an info banner shows but not for long enough to read it so you have to hit the info button to read it, in the full screen guide there is no picture within it so to view that channel you have to tune to it rather than get an idea from within the guide. I'm going to use a seperate freeview box which does have better features.
The pc socket is the old 9 pin type, to get the sound from your pc out of the tv you have to use this socket, outdated before it was released, most pc's use dvi now, you can connect to an hdmi socket from your pc dvi but then you don't get the sound from your pc out of the tv.
A decent tv but it could of been a whole lot better.

I took delivery of this item on last week and I have to say that I am more than pleased with it. I chose this set as it is 100hz having previously had a CRT 100hz which definitely made a difference to the picture quality and response times. The picture is exceptionally clear on normal digital Sky and I am seriously looking forward to viewing the HD Sky I have just ordered. I watch quite a bit of .avi stuff through a Philips DVD player and the quality is fine. DVD quality is superb, particularly using the upscaling DVD player. I spent a lot of time researching HD TV's and I can honestly say this is seriously good value for money.

This is my first LCD panel, upgrading from a CRT. Did a fair bit of research first and then bought the newly released KDL40D3000. The picture is fabulous on anologue, digital and DVD; really sharp, no funny fringing effects around moving objects, colours are vibrant. The EPG is really easy to use. Easy to setup and search for channels. The panel looks great. Images even from my old 2.1megapixel camera look crisp; how does it do that ! I expected them to be blocky on a 40inch screen.
Thought the remote wasn't working too well but then found that the receiver is on the right hand edge of the panel....much better now!
All in all, fabulous LCD panel. Picture with non-HD broadcasts is great (much better than others, even other more expensive SONY LCDs). Drawback is no 1080p but what's the likelihood of broadcast transmissions in that format for many years to come? I happily traded the loss of 1080p for better non-HD pictures and can still see HD in 1080i if I ever get an HD DVD player. Buy one, you won't regret it !
