October 07, 2003
inneapolis, MN - ViewSonic Corporation unveiled its first wide-format, 16:9 aspect ratio LCD-TV multimedia display, the NextVision N1700w.
The UltraBrite ViewSonic N1700w allows users to view all forms of digital and analog content, including compatibility with HDTV receivers and set top boxes, at resolutions of 480P, 720P and 1080i, the manufacturer reports. It also brings to the home smart features such as the ability to process other popular entertainment formats-digital camera, camcorder, video, games, Internet entertainment and superior DVD viewing from any PC or DVD player.
The N1700w offers a 17-inch wide-screen and enhanced viewing with a 1280x768 resolution, more than 450 nits of brightness and 450:1 contrast ratio. Multimedia enhancements include 3:2 pull down and a 3D digital comb filter that supports both enhanced definition television (EDTV) and HDTV resolution formats, and provides sharp, crisp images for optimum picture detail.
In addition, the N1700w delivers full-screen viewing and picture-in-picture (PIP) capabilities for watching video or TV content while working simultaneously on PC applications. Multiview or POP allows users to create up to nine picture windows on the screen for viewing multiple TV channels at the same time. Advanced digital de-interlacing and image scaling, high fidelity audio with a 20-watt integrated speaker system, a 181-channel tuner and a slim-line remote control also are standard.
The ViewSonic N1700w will be available later this year through authorized resellers, retailers, distributors and mail order, at the suggested retail price (MSRP) of $1199.
