Sony uw-br100

Been thinking of getting a new tv after christmas, I would like one with on demand content. Now sony's are looking the most appealing to me, BBC iPlayer, Demand Five, and Lovefilm (already a member so can get some free films streamed to the tv).
I wanted people opinions on the Sony uw-br100 say if I was using it on a tv say in my bedroom. I already have a wireless N router. Would the Sony KDL-32EX524 work with it?
What kind of broadband speeds would you need for BBC iPlayer with the HD content?

I have a uw-br100 which I use with my Sony blu-ray player. My N-router is on the ground floor of my town house and the player and TV on the first floor. I have no problems with signal strength, but the software seems to be flaky; sometimes it connects almost immediately, other times it goes through a lengthy "loading internet content" routine. I have a 10Mbs broadband connection and SD streams perfectly but HD can pause sometimes. I would guess anything faster than 10Mbs would be fine.
The Sony website shows that the dongle would work with your TV.

Well my broadband averages around 11mbs - 12mbs so should be okish. Exchange (and hopefully cabinet) will getting infinity mid to late next year.
