Philips' latest version of its Aurea TV range is the 40PFL9904H, which now uses LED backlighting.

If you're not familiar with it, Aurea is a special version of the manufacturer's Ambilight system, which uses diodes that illuminate the wall behind the screen to match the colours displayed on screen.  With Aurea, the same colours are also shown on the frame at the front of the TV.
