Unhappy Sony KV-32/36HQ100. Yet another problem??

Hi everyone.
I have recently purchased a Sony KV-32HQ100. Honestly this TV's picture/sound quality is superior.
But as far as I experienced, my set have also the common problems below described:

1) Advanced 100Hz Digital Motion problem
Problem: This is a new technology and the filter causes some problems mentioned earlier in this forum.
Solution:There is "no" solution but you can switch to 100Hz Digital Plus mode via TV menu and/or service menu.
2) Lip sync problem
Problem: Today this is a common problem within TV sets where the TVs try to correct the picture quality with some digital correction techniques. Therefore there is a echo and/or delay problem between the picture/sound via "A/V receiver".
Solution: The "new" DVD players or A/V Receivers have "delay management" feature. So get one of them.
3) Memory stick problem:
Problem: As far as I know that there isn't any message in this forum (or related threads) where it's described that this TV model is "incompatible" with "Memory Stick Pro".
Solution: This TV is definitely "incompatible" with Memory Stick Pro. Get a memory stick instead.
4) Electro Shock risk problem:
Problem: Regarding to Sony there is an electro shock risk with this set.
Solution: Call Sony. (Or they will call you) They'll come to your home and fix the problem with some plastic components in 30 mins.

And finally a new problem (?) I've experienced:

Whenever you watch a widescreen movie with a aspect of 2.35:1 (There are still black bars above and below the movie) I saw 2 horizontal transparent lines just at the borders of these black bars.
(If you watch a different aspect widescreen movie (e.g: 1.85:1) and/or you zoom the picture you don't experience this problem)

The lines are like trinitron tube lines but they are transparent!.
So when you watch a movie, the image behind these lines are noticeable and uncomfortable.

Is it because of Super fine pitch tube?

Has anyone experienced a similar problem?
Thanx a lot.
