8/10

WIRED
Spectacular contrast ratio. Buttery-smooth 240-Hz refresh rate banishes judder and blur. Excellent universal remote with dedicated buttons for web content.
TIRED
Some noticeable artifacts when upconverting SD video. Streaming video limited to MPEG-2; no AAC support.

Of the sets we tested, Sony's Z-Series TV offered the richest jackpot of internet goodies, including Netflix, Yahoo Widgets, video podcasts, radio and a host of custom-formatted sites. It will also stream multimedia files over a local network. Throw in a sweet 46-inch LCD panel and you've got a truly convergent delight.

Buy at Sony
