Sony continues to update its Bravia line, with these new V1- and J1-series sets just announced in Japan.

It keeps the 3,000:1 contrast ratio, 2.4GHz Bravia Link remote and HDMI control tech from the slim F-series, along with twin HDMI inputs, three composite jacks and ports for Ethernet and USB. The J1 series only has room for 720p worth of pixels in its 32-, 26- and 20-inch frame along with a max 2,500:1 contrast ratio.
