SONY'S LATEST 17-INCH LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY OFFERS NEW BRIGHTNESS TECHNOLOGY THAT'S IDEAL FOR THE KITCHEN, DEN OR OFFICE
LAS VEGAS (CES, Booth #N109), Jan. 7, 2004 - Don't let your PC display cramp your style. Sony's new flat panel display complements other household electronics and can be placed in any area of any room.
The SDM-HS73P model, with a 17-inch viewable image size, features new updates in brightness technology and a black bezel to match home d écor. This display is the first to integrate Sony's X-BRITE ™ panel technology, originally introduced on VAIO notebook PCs. The technology enhances contrast, viewing angles, brightness performance and overall image clarity.
"With X-BRITE and ErgoBright ™ technologies combined into one panel, there is a huge boost in screen contrast and clarity," said Jim Neal, general manager for display product marketing in Sony Electronics' IT Products Division. "Specs don't come close to signaling the improvement from this technology."
Sporting a high brightness panel (400cd/m2) that makes photos richer and text crisp and clear, the display provides quality performance whether placed near a window or in a lightless room. With ErgoBright ™ technology, the SDM-HS73P display can be easily adjusted with the touch of a button with no loss of contrast or color fidelity. This LCD (liquid crystal display) is ideal for consumers looking to step-up their PC set-up with a new size or style display.
With varying viewing options, the new display enhances the user's experience - from movies and gameplay to photos and web browsing. Flexible viewing angles tilt to several different positions, up to 20 degrees. Adding to the modern design is a frame that appears to float in the air due to a softly curved metallic base that lifts the panel from the desktop.
Available in February, the HS73P display will be priced at about $609.99.
