Is it a TV? Is it a picture frame? It's a TFrame!! Or perhaps a PictureV!!
Actually, it's a Sony Bravia E4000 LCD TV, part of their new lines that Sony genuinely hopes will be displayed amongst your works of priceless art. There's even a mode (Picture Frame Mode - they clearly didn't like my word art) whereby you can load one of six "artistic masterpieces" to be displayed on the screen when you're not using it for telly viewing. There's everything from van Gogh to Pop Art, although sadly no plasticine bunnies or bouncing balls down hills a la the Sony Bravia ads. A mistake, I say.
There's a 32-inch and a 40-inch which they hope you'll mount on your wall next to your other arty things, or you can go for the 26-incher, and scatter it amongst your photo frames.
And if you're worried about the environment, don't! Worry no longer. Soothe that fevered brow. The E4000 uses 35% less power in Picture Frame Mode (which I should probably at this juncture point out that you can use your own photos via the USB input) than in TV viewing mode, and you can switch it to automatically switch to standby after a certain amount of time. I can see it now: "What an amazing Monet. Look at the colours. Phenomen... where'd it go? OMG, it was a TV all along!!".
You can probably tell, this is probably one of my favourite TV features, like, ever.
Oh, and it's got the Bravia Engine 2, 1080p full HD on the larger two models, 178 degree viewing angle and an integrated TV tuner as well.
Nice informative post
