Actually most Bravia model and latest lcd tv have this optimization. If u wanna have a looksee go to Courts since they plug in all their lcd tv to astro so that potential buyers can see the difference and from my observation, Sharp and Sony got the best picture if u wanna use it for astro viewing. And also, it helps if u use s-video cable for the connection.

BTW, I just bought the Bravia yesterday. Bought it at Jusco and I didn't know they give a 5% discount for tv purchase right now...so for the RM2499 Bravia S, I got it at a nice price of RM2374.  

The astro viewing is also nice after some tweaking...but I dunno what I did coz when I first plugged it in, the pic is kind of crappy and pixelated but after a while it kind of adjusted well. 

Below are some pics that I took so that those who wanna buy can see the image quality to help with your decision. Pic taken at 5 a.m.
