"While the ability to link my TV with internet content is appealing, the technology is still far from mass appeal. I am intriqued that several Bravia models support add-on modules that may one day allow me to access cable without the need for a set top box. My 60" XBR2 does have a cable card slot whi …"  Read Full Review »
