AOC introduces 17-inch V17 LCD monitor: 12-millimeters thin

AOC already dished out a number of HD LCD monitors for those with a few extra bucks to spare, but the 17-inch V17 keeps things relatively cheap ($199.99) and exceptionally thin. More specifically, the monitor checks in at just 12-millimeters deep — it’s no XEL-1, sure, but that’s pretty frickin’ slim. Furthermore, it includes a built-in VGA webcam, glass base and integrated speakers to boot. We’re still waiting to hear back on the screen resolution, but considering that this won’t ship until late 2008 at the earliest, you’ve still got time to think on it. Full release after the break.

Update: Resolution is 1,440 x 900, there’s a 5,000:1 contrast ratio, a 200 cd/m2 brightness and a VGA input is included. Read more

New Cell Phone Accessory Safeguards Cell Phones, iPods and PDAs

The Panda Leash is a new cell phone accessory, which protects cell phones, iPods, PDAs, cameras and other electronic devices from being dropped, lost or stolen.

(PRWEB) July 15, 2008 — The current number of mobile phones subscriptions in the United States is over 420,000,000, the equivalent of 1.39 phones for every man, woman and child in the country. One guess is as high as 80% of these devices will be dropped, lost or stolen within the first 120-days of use. Herein was the inspiration for the newest cell phone accessory, the Panda Leash.
    
Panda is a leash fastening system that safeguards cell phones, iPods, BlackBerrys, Palms, almost any PDA. It is ideally suited for digital cameras as well. A small, spring-lock appliance secures the leash to the phone, releasing it instantly with the push of a button. It adheres strongly with a 3M adhesive pad that peels off cleanly by hand. Panda’s micro-thin coil leash is designed for ease-of-use and non-interference when making or receiving calls. It is a mere 5” in length, fitting easily into purse or pocket, but stretches easily to arm’s length use without restraint or pulling. If dropped, the attached phone or device is stopped short of impact by the length of the leash.
        
“Clip-on/Clip-off” jewelry attachment is a novel feature of the product, and a Panda exclusive. Attachment clips allow a favorite bracelet, chain or piece of jewelry to be clipped on the leash in moments for any look or style that fits the mood or occasion.    
        
The novelty and appeal of the Panda Leash™ were featured at the April CTIA Wireless 2008 expo in Las Vegas at the show’s “Fashion in Motion” program, which presented the most innovative and creative products in the wearable, wireless design industry.
        
Panda Leash cell phone accessory kits are available in two leash styles and multiple colors, and retail from Panda for $17.95 and $19.95 each according to style.
