Seoul, South Korea (PRWEB) August 26, 2004 -- Prestigio, one of the most
dynamic international manufacturers of LCD displays and TVs, mobile computers
and plasma TVs, has unveiled a new powerful 12.1” mobile computer. This new
computer has the unique capability of playing music CDs, DVD videos and browsing
digital photos without loading the operation system.
Visconte 120 is a
bright new addition to the series of latest Prestigio high-performance
notebooks. The new elegant model can boast of an enhanced resolution of WXGA
1200x800, and is targeted to frequent travelers who need a light but
fully-functional portable machine. Visconte 120 really allows to successfully
combine full-fledged work and versatile entertainment.
This model’s
"jewel" is the built-in Power Cinema function which is activated by a dedicated
button. It allows Visconte 120 to reproduce music CDs, DVD video and look
through digital photos from a CD or a Flash-card without loading the operation
system, which has been made possible thanks to a Linux-based microcode. This
function virtually transforms the notebook into a multipurpose device
incorporating a portable DVD, MP3, CD player and a photo viewer. Interestingly,
the Power Cinema function can also be operated by an optional remote control
unit turning the notebook into a portable home movie theatre.
Despite
its multifunctionality, very light weight (1.9 kg) and modest dimensions
(292x230x36 mm), Visconte 120 remains a powerful and high-performance computer
based on Intel® Pentium® M processor (1.5 - 2 GHz) with Dothan and Banias
support. The integrated graphic solution powered by Intel® 855GME chipset with
Intel® Extreme Graphics 2 technology ensures enjoyable heavy gaming and video
viewing. Visconte 120 also has a noteworthy continuous battery operation time
and easy-to-use communication possibilities powered by Intel® CentrinoTM
technology.
In addition, a special power-saving Smart Power II function
increases battery runtime by 26 percent, and Battery Mark and 3D Mark 2001
performance by 10 percent. The notebook’s compatibility and connectability with
other devices is ensured through a wide selection of ports. Visconte 120 is
equipped with 3 USB 2.0 ports, RJ-45 Ethernet plug, RJ-11 modem plug, external
VGA port, IEEE1394 port, S-Video output port, earphone jack, 4-in-1 card reader
and mic-in jack.
This notebook’s owner will by no means remain without a
connection with the world, since Visconte’s communication capabilities are
almost unlimited. It possesses an Intel® PRO/Wireless module, a V.92 fax modem,
an integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet card and a Bluetooth expansion
port.
