The Sony Bravia EX710 is actually an update version from the EX700 series. The new model features a smaller bezel in order to create a more streamlined design and minimalistic look. This HDTV produces a 1920 x 1080p panel, edge-lit LED backlighting, and a Motionflow 120Hz processing. What makes the Sony Bravia EX710 more interesting is that it has a Presence Sensor that will automatically turn off the picture when you leave the room. There are also a zero-watt Energy Saving Switch and an Ambient Sensor that adjust the best brightness level for you. Additional specs include four HDMI inputs, a USB port, and a PC input. The Sony Bravia KDL-32EX710 and KDL-40EX710 are now available in Japan for 140,000 Yen and 170,000 Yen, respectively. [Akihabara]
