Trust us, these certainly aren't the only new LCDs that Vizio is doling out today, but you've got to start somewhere, right? The firm's new Black Tie family consists of the 42-inch SV42LF and the 47-inch SV47LF, both of which rock that 1080p goodness, 120Hz processing, 6,500:1 contrast ratio, four HDMI 1.3 inputs, an integrated NTSC / ATSC / Clear-QAM TV tuner, on-board Dolby 3.0 processing, Motion Estimation Motion Compensation (MEMC) and a side access "HD Game Port" with an HDMI input. These units also feature slimmer bezels than those found on Vizio's past sets, and should be available this July for $1,499 and $1,899, respectively.
