My first post :) pretty good bargain..for $1750 you get:
Sony KDL40WE5 Bravia Eco Series 40" Full HD LCD TV
PLUS
Bonus 120GB PS3 from Sony until 20.12.09
PLUS
Bravia 3 Year Warranty from Sony until 31st December 2009
Two weeks ago I bought KDL40W5500 for the same price from these guys..this one is a better model with extra features!
$1690 at webprice.com.au, you will get PS3 as well, also for $1875, you will get better Z series.
delete please.
I think this is not a good deal. Even before the recent price drop (and at the start of the PS3 promotion), Clive Peters online has been selling this exact model for $1799. With the recent price drop, you probably can get this for around $1600 or less.
Just was looking at these at Harvey's and JB Hifi in-store and I'm pretty sure I saw them for $1500 after the markdowns they were offering. Was definitely the ECO series since I noticed they had the same price (roughly) for the 200Hz TV vs the 100Hz Eco. Even without the discount of 10% which apparently ended on Monday just gone, that'd still make those cheaper than $1750.
Maybe just more expensive online, or just cheaper at that one store?
At any rate, as people have mentioned, you can get it cheaper elsewhere and probably the wait time online (sold out apparently).
JB online just increased the price for this model yesterday… it was $1680 a few days ago.
and the free delivery has just finished too :(
A better deal is $1698 at Clive Peeters online with free delivery (using the Paypal promo).
Make sure you have a handle on the pricing situation on the Bravias. Prices have been all over the place. From one day to another what is a good price can change dramatically. Prices even seem to have gone up since last weekend. I recommend reading the thread on whirlpool at least for the last week or so.

Also note that the free PS3 and warranty is part of a more general Bravia deal that applies to a number of Bravia models see:
