Touch of a Button

A new line of high-end, low-cost TFT LCD (Thin Film Transistor LCD) See LCD.  monitors from ADVAN Corporation is designed to make configuration easier than ever by integrating Sage's Cheetah 2 chip set multifunction display controller into its new AGM15TL monitor.

Using Sage's exclusive AutoSet(tm) technology, ADVAN's AGM 15TL delivers one-touch adjustment of the monitor's image size, resolution, color, sharpness, brightness and contrast to render a clear, vivid picture. This AutoSet feature makes the monitor user-friendly by eliminating the complicated adjustments that had been previously necessary to obtain a quality image.

In addition to the AutoSet feature, ADVAN has added multimedia speakers and increased the brightness to 250cd, from its predecessor the AGM15T. The AGM15TL also has an option that makes the monitor wall mountable simply by removing its base.

With a wide viewing angle and razor sharp resolution of 1024x768, ADVAN foresees that the AGM15TL will continue the past trend of winning attention away from leading brand-name TFT LCD monitor manufacturers and out-selling its rivals at retail centers such as CompUSA and Fry's Electronics Fry's Electronics is a specialty retailer of software, consumer electronics, computer hardware and household appliances with a chain of superstores headquartered in Silicon Valley. Starting with one store located in Sunnyvale, California, USA, the chain now boasts sales of $2. .

Through a strategy of cutting-edge technology, aggressive pricing, extended warranties and by offering a nonparallel quality product, ADVAN is at the forefront of an industry movement to guide customers toward replacing their desktop CRTs with TFT-LCD TFT-LCD Thin Film Transistor - Liquid Crystal Display  monitors.

"Working spaces are getting smaller in this country," noted Lebu. "What has already occurred in Japan - where small spaces have made TFT LCD monitors the new choice monitor for the desktop - is beginning to occur here. By making this new monitor as user-friendly as possible, ADVAN is striving to accelerate the migration toward this trend."

The AGM15TL is currently shipping, and has a suggested retail price of $1095.00. For more information, contact ADVAN International Corp., 1-888-786-1688 or visit www.advancorp.com.
