The only difference is cosmetic. That's why we recommend the Bravia over the XBR, unless you absolutely *must* have the floating glass and interchangeable bezels. Hope that helps! - Andy Hey there Colleen,

However, Sony's website indicates that feature is only on the XBR line. Is it possible to get this feature in the V series? After over a year of debating whether to break down and buy a new TV, I am contemplating making the plunge this weekend on the KDL-40V2500 but am still somewhat leary. Hopefully I am making the right choice -- as I have not had a new TV since 1983!
