As in your title, you didn’t spell it correctly, it is not the “SLIMEST” but the “SLIMIEST”. In principle the Philips Company claims the slimmest TV currently !

That picture of the two remote controls at the bottom, the one on the right has a Windows Media Center button on it.

Did Sony integrate a Window Media Center Extender into their TV line ??

I know HP have done it already in the USA & I think Samsung have been toying with the idea but I’m sorta surprised to see Sony do so as well. I thought they would have integrated their own XMB with UPnP/DLNA as seen in the PS3.

Ignore my last comment, looking again at the picture it is a Sony Vaio remote for their laptops not TV’s, mystery solved : )
