Product Description
Sharp's LC-37D40U high-definition LCD HDTV proves you don't have to sacrifice style for technology. This gorgeous 37-inch set features a strikingly shiny piano black cabinet that will become an elegant centerpiece to any room. It also features the latest Sharp screen and video processing innovations, as well as an integrated HDTV tuner, a space-saving design with bottom-mounted speakers, included stand, pure digital audio/video connectivity with two HDMI inputs, and a rapid-fire response time of 6 ms (milliseconds)--perfect for watching fast-action sports and movies.

This set features Sharp's Multi-Pixel technology, which divides each pixel in to two sections to deliver more natural and accurate color reproduction when viewing the screen from any angle. It will improve extreme-angle viewing by approximately 60 percent. It also offers Sharp's proprietary Advanced Super View (ASV) LCD panel technology, which uses an enhanced color filter that permits more light throughput. This increases the contrast ratio by 150 percent to 1200:1 for pure whites, deep blacks, and a higher range of colors. Sharp's Quick Shoot video circuitry provides an ultra-fast pixel response time of 6 ms, which helps to ensure excellent detail and smooth motion during high-speed scene transitions. The screen also offers a low-reflection coating to reduce the effect of sunlight and interior lighting to provide vivid large-screen pictures wherever you install your LCD television.

The built-in ATSC tuner pulls HD signals right from the airwaves, and its QAM tuner is fully compatible with unscrambled HDTV cable reception. A standard analog NTSC tuner receives standard-definition (SD) programming. The screen delivers a true 1366 x 768-pixel HDTV resolution, and it also features a wide 176-degree viewing angle and 450 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating--perfect for viewing colorful details in even direct sunlight.

You'll enjoy enveloping audio from the set's built-in 20-watt bottom-mounted stereo speakers (10 watts per channel), which can also produce virtual Dolby surround sound. It provides the following connection options:

  • Composite AV (RCA): 3 in
  • S-Video: 1 in
  • Component Video: 2 in
  • HDMI: 2 in
  • RF: 1 in
  • Total analog audio in: 4
  • Analog audio out: 1
  • Digital optical: 1 out

Tech Talk
HDMI is a lossless, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface to link any audio/video source (such as a set-top box, DVD player, or AV receiver) with your TV--all over a single cable. HDMI supports standard, enhanced or high definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It supports all ATSC formats--standard (SDTV), enhanced (EDTV), and high (HDTV).

Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

Product Description
Get the sharpest and clearest images possible from HD and standard TV and your favorite DVD movies with the 72-inch Toshiba 72HM195 DLP rear-projection television, which offers both 1080p and 720p progressive resolution. As 720p is rated as high-definition, Toshiba has dubbed this TheaterWide TV XHD--2X Resolution, as its 1080p rating has twice the pixel count of 720. This set is loaded with the latest in video and audio processing technology as well as loaded with a wide variety of connectivity options, including Firewire and a multi-format memory card slot.

DLP (which stands for Digital Light Processing) uses an optical semiconductor to recreate source material with a fidelity analog systems can't match. While other technologies lose a certain amount of light in transit, the microscopic mirrors in a DLP projection system bring more light from lamp to screen. It also features better color uniformity over time--no burn-in, screen aging or color-shifting possible. It's the leading display technology for products like small portable conference room projectors and professional venue entertainment systems.

The technology at the center of the 62HM95 is the new Toshiba Digital Light Engine named Talen X, which utilizes Texas Instruments' xHD4 chip, advanced optics, and Toshiba's DEEP Picture and Xtreme BLAC technologies to provide high resolution with improved brightness and contrast. It also includes the new PixelPure AT Digital Video Processing, utilizing new Adaptive Technology to create further improved picture quality, the new Radiance 150 Hi-Bright Lamp for noticeably brighter images and a TheaterFine DFP Screen with anti-glare coating that results in increased detail and noticeably deeper blacks.

A 3D Y/C comb filter (4 MB, 10-bit with Vertical Contour Correction) further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt). The CableClear feature utilizes the Digital 3D/YC Comb Filter to compare frames and determine the existence and extent of video noise. It then applies the needed amount of digital video noise reduction, and the appropriate sharpness adjustment to keep the picture clear. This feature now works on RF, composite and S-Video inputs, and can be selected by input.

The HD Dynamic Contrast feature increases contrast and color saturation to create deep, rich images. The intelligent circuitry analyzes both the dark and bright areas of the picture, and separately optimizes the dynamic range in each area of the picture. Toshiba's PixelPure AT (Adaptive Technology) includes Motion Adaptive De-Interlacing, Adaptive MPEG Processing, Adaptive Contrast Enhancement, and Adaptive Color Enhancement--all critical elements to deliver a consistently high quality picture.

With the integrated ATSC tuner, you'll be able to receive off-air high definition broadcasts without the need for an external set-top box. It also features a digital cable tuner (QAM), which allows for the reception of digital cable signals that are not scrambled. It also incorporates a CableCard slot for optional card, which can pick up HD (ATSC) broadcasts from your digital cable provider (digital cable subscription required). The integrated TV Guide on-screen guide provides an easy to read listing of the television programs available to view or record. It includes an 8-day program listing, the ability to perform keyword searches for locating favorite programs, and the G-Link IR Blaster for controlling cable boxes.

The speakers provide a total of 20 watts of power (20 watts per channel). The SRS WOW virtual surround sound system provides amazing, enveloping sound through just the two built-in speakers. It also provides MTS stereo/SAP with dbx. The StableSound feature eliminates the annoyance of normal program volume being followed immediately by extremely loud commercial messages or drastic volume fluctuations while changing channels.

It offers the following connection options:

  • Composite AV (RCA): 3 in (1 side), 1 out
  • S-Video: 3 in (1 side)
  • Component video: 2 in (480i/480p/720p)
  • HDMI: 1 in
  • RF: 2 in
  • Firewire (IEEE1394): 2 in
  • Analog audio (RCA, L/R): 1 out

The OmniViewer memory card slot accepts five different types of memory cards, including SD (Secure Digital), MM (Multi-Media), MS (Memory Stick), CF (Compact Flash), and SM (Smart Media). In addition, it includes a JPEG Viewer program that allows the TV to display pictures from most digital cameras, which can be rotated and viewed in an automatic presentation format. The TheaterNet Control System simplifies the control of external components through both an IR jack and Firewire (IEEE1394) port, the latter of which can be used to transmit digital video and audio and allow for recording of HDTV.

Convenience features include color temperature control, closed captioning on mute, sleep timer, tri-lingual on-screen display, V-Chip parental controls, video input labelling, channel labeling, and Toshiba's GameTimer feature, which allows parents to set the television to shut off after a specified period of time and stay off until a lockout key code is entered.

HD-XA1 Up-Converting HD DVD Player

The HD-XA1 up-converting HD-DVD player delivers outstanding resolution, bright, vivid colors, and stunning sound using the next-generation high-definition DVD technology. The HD-XA1 connects via HDMI to provide 720p/1080i resolution in the native format of HD-DVD disc content.

HD That Rivals HDTV The HD-XA1 disc drive has an astounding 36.55 Mbps transfer rate. By comparison, standard DVD has an average transfer rate of less than 10 Mbps, and HDTV has a rate of 24 Mbps. The more bits that can be allocated to video, the more detailed the resulting picture can be.

Pure Digital Connection The HD-XA1 connects to your HDTV with the latest advancement in audio/video equipment interfaces, namely the high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI). HDMI is the first industry-supported all digital audio/video connection providing the transmission of uncompressed digital video and multichannel audio on a single cable. The HD-XA1 will output HD content through the HDMI interface in the native format of the HD DVD disc content of 720p or 1080i.

Standard DVDs Taken to an HD Level Enjoy backward-compatibility and play your collection of standard DVDs on the HD-XA1. In addition, the standard-definition DVD picture resolution can be up-converted via the HDMI interface to near-HD quality, with output resolution of 720p or 1080i to match your HDTV's performance. Because the conversion takes place in the player, the signal remains free from excessive digital-to-analog conversion artifacts.

Processing Prowess The HD-XA1 has far-from-ordinary built-in multichannel decoders for Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD (2 ch.) and DTS. The HD-XA1 employs four high-performance DSP engines to decode the multichannel streams of the wide array of audio formats. These 32-bit floating-point DSPs are world renowned for their high accuracy and are used in many high-quality audio solutions in the home theater market. The DSPs handle many of the required conversion processes, as well as the extensive on-board multichannel signal management for the HD-XA1, including user-selectable crossovers, delay management, and channel level management. After decoding and signal management, the digital audio is converted to analog by way of 24 bit/192kHz audio DAC and output as 5.1 analog audio.

Digital Audio Output Options The HD-XA1 can pass digital information to a surround-sound processor/receiver with S/PDIF or HDMI. For Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks, the bitstream will be passed through both connections, just as in a standard DVD player with the same interfaces. Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD soundtracks will be converted to a standard bitstream Dolby Digital) output through S/PDIF or HDMI. Additionally, all of the HD-XA1's supported audio formats can be decoded to PCM and output via HDMI in stereo or 5.1 multichannel, depending on the original soundtrack.

Acer TravelMate 6460 for professional work

Acer TravelMate 6460Today, we take a look to the characteristics and capabilities of a notebook PC-class business notebook, so company Acer Computer positions model number TravelMate 6460. To be fair, is worth noting that corporate laptops, much more rare guests our test labs than, say, budgetary apparatus, portable multimedia centers, the model class replace desktops, or even ultralight portable PC. The fact is that the specificity of business consists of the mandatory support of a number of specific functions such unprecedented security measures which, in turn, have an impact on price. Of course, the corporate laptop must also be sufficiently productive, and at the same time be sufficiently mobile. Here is the tough combination of functions.


It was fun to get acquainted with modern aircraft of this class good, Series TravelMate 6460 is not just a productive model based on the Intel Centrino Duo, "to the teeth" armed security, The laptop can also be a model in terms of the future, thanks to the work of running Windows Vista, including corporate versions.



Specific apparatus, which we have today - read your Acer TravelMate 6463WLMi is equipped with the Intel Core2 Duo, discrete graphics card based on the chip ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 with 128 MB RAM own, universal adapter for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth interface 2.0 + EDR, that in itself will position the model as a modern and productive. Complementing the picture bay Acer MediaBay, with the possibility of hot-optical drive for a second hard drive or an additional battery power; a complete set of I / O ports, including card-reader 5-in-1 and such "exotic" as a connector DVI-D, and the universal connector port Acer ezDock II / II + dock station.

However, the main advantage, and "belly" of the model is the maximum level of security implemented on the hardware and software levels, without which belong business notebook. Among these tools and technologies to the biometric sensor-ID fingerprint; Plus SmartCard reader, DASP technology + (Disk Anti-Shock Protection Plus), so as to prevent damage to the information plus utilities company eDataSecurity eLock and for the level of security at the discretion of the user.



Add to the above set of nothing; It, in a not very usual thing, it should be noted support gigabit LAN (but for the corporate fleet is the standard de facto). And : in terms of the readiness of this model to work with Windows Vista all looks perfect, but ... yes, little memory. The preloaded Microsoft Windows XP Professional Edition of the existing 512 MB more than adequate for the good work but when you upgrade to any version of Windows Vista memory to be at least double-good slots to do so.

Construction
Nice to surprise package notebook Acer 6463WLMi TravelMate is the maximum for compact models with 15.4 "screen. It is very practical and it without prejudice to the administration, package inside the additional expanded dempfirute transport tabs. The second half of the boxAcer TravelMate 6460 placed into standard-power supply; cable to connect to the electrical outlets; warranty card; package instructions; the drivers, utilities, soft and the user electronically; Cable to connect the modem to the telephone network. All on the ground, with the exception of the Recovery CD, which is available not.

The first glance at the away from the packaging laptop is for the manufacturer : top cover apparatus made of plastic, glass dark brown carefully protected film, in the whole area of the cover. Want to remove and enjoy, you will leave on the ground and dispose of the head experiences about scratches.

Now, the traditional appearance. The frontal plane machine made the most popular interfaces-audio. Go three audio connectors are hardware switches input interfaces wireless Wi-Fi and Bluetooth built-in LED work. Go-indicators nutrition and battery life. It should be noted that the designers TravelMate Acer 6463WLMi not rely on the reliability of magnetic latches lids and use good old double mechanical latch, which is also accessible from the front plane of the laptop.


At the back side notebook made all interfaces primarily related to the work on the table - VGA graphics, video, wireless communications connectors. However, when you work with knees, "all the ports in most situations unlikely to be collected, all really thoughtfully and rationally added.


The right side is loaded machine for a minimum only optical drive and closer to the rear side is a very pertinent here USB port-for example, to connect the mouse.


However, the main interface burden placed on the left side here, and the remaining two-port USB and FireWire, and cardreader, and ExpressCard/34 slots, PC Card Type II and SmartCard. Design of slots is groomed, and even allowed to withdraw this is the plane ventilation system cooling the processor.


Lower plane laptop-no surprises : evidentiary Acer MediaBay, the battery module bay hard drive protection Acer DASP, under-cap slot to connect Sun Acer ezDock II / II +, and, of course, ultimate cover the area to upgrade RAM.


Now is the time to bring a laptop into the operating position, lift the cover. First, as can be seen-1,3-MP camcorder Acer OrbiCam, Black at 225 ° and allowing video in real time for business-laptop thing indispensable.


Next, personally for me, only superficially familiar with the modern art Acer, a wonderful design feature, a laptop keyboard deflected Acer FineTouch.
