As for Sony's LCD, they look really stylish, but raen't that great. Their response times are pretty high, and the only one with a decent response time is the S81 w/ 30 ms total, although it has 20ms rise, which can be qiute annoying (try to stay lower than or equal to 15ms rise). In a nutshell, Sony LCD's aren't very good, although they are very stylish.
