Nice. It's taken them a while to get rid of huge bezels, i mean they are smaller on monitors but still have a bit to go :P

Was looking at some monitors with stupidly thin bezels not long ago in a article about Eyefinity (where the bezel ruins things :))

Is it just me that doesn't like this small bezel look? I think it makes them look cheap if anything. Maybe its better in the flesh? I quite like a bit of bezel if it's stylish and not too thick. Otherwise the TV starts to look like an LCD photo frame in my eyes. I also don't see why you need an iPhone remote now  ::)

I'm using the XBMC remote on Android to contorl my HTPC and its excellent, instead of using it as a remote you (which you can) you just browse movies / TV shows on the phone (with all your meta data, fanart, posters etc) and when you select someting it opens and starts playing. Then switch to remote mode to control the normal stuff :)
