Finally found someone who has the 40"XBR. I previewed that unit at J&R in New York in August and was disappointed. I had the ability to do a side by side with the Sony 36" 16:9 that was on the floor with it. Since the 40" was set up by Sony techs its poor performance was a puzzle. The source was sony pro scan 700 unit. The disk it self was a sony demo. When I asked the Sony floor people why the other set was much better in its viewing they were puzzled also. The suggested it might have been the that the 40" was not calibrated. They were truly upset and they then turned off the 36". Since it could have been the dvd player I would double check before getting a 700 pro scan.

Would be very interested in your further comments.
