Vizio announced the 1080p LED XVT line way back in June of ‘09 and they are just now starting to ship. These are the sets that come with that oh-so-awesome QWERTY remote to work the TV’s collection of Internet apps. It’s too bad that most owners will still need a cable or satellite box because this TV line is nearly an all-in-one solution for home entertainment.
Get this, the XVT and upcoming XVT Pro line have all these services built-in:
- Vudu
- Netflix
- Yahoo TV Wdigets
- Flickr
- Blockbuster OnDemand
- Amazon Video On Demand
- Rhapsody
- Pandora
- Showtime videos
- Revision3 videos
- blip.tv
- CBS
- NBC
- CNBC
- The Weather Channel
- Roxio CinemaNow
Now some of these services like Netflix and Blockbuster OnDemand require a subsciption, but the access is built-into the set. The technical specs are just as impressive with a 240Hz, localized-dimming LED backlit screen, 5 HDMI ports, and 802.11 b/g/n for all that Internet fun. The 42-inch set starts the line off at $949 with the 47-inch and 55-inch fetching $1,549 and $1,999, respectively. [Amazon via Big Picture Big Sound]
