In what looks like a dream combo (at least on paper …. or the web), Sony has released a new HDTV LCD in the UK which supports 1080p. It also has an integrated Freeview tuner for of you lucky people in the UK who get this sort of stuff over the air.

At the same time as the TV launch, Sony is also showing off its SVR-S500. The SVR-S500 sports an 80 GB hard drive (seems kind of small to me, especially if it does HDTV) and it is able to store up to 8 days of electronic program guide. The price also seems to be a bit high at £235, but that could also be because of the “Sony Tax”.
