Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you're traveling cross-country or want to show your DVDs at a friend's house across town, the Mintek MDP-1810KIT portable DVD player is an all-in-one, easy-to-carry entertainment package: the player and its stereo headphones slide into a supplied carry case. The unit plays DVD-Video (both NTSC and PAL-formatted discs), CDs (including recordable and rewriteable CDs), MP3-filled music discs, and Kodak Picture CDs for custom slide shows of your digital photos. A bright, 8-inch TFT(active-matrix) color LCD makes any program look great, and it's configured in a 16:9 widescreen dimension that matches the shape of most DVD movies.

At home, you can connect the player to a television (either composite- or S-video), and--when it's hooked up to a compatible audio/video receiver and multichannel speaker system--the tiny player can bring soundtracks to life with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel sound.

Designed for easy use on the road, the MDP-1810KIT includes a high-capacity rechargeable lithium battery pack, a car power adapter, and an AC power adapter. Its built-in anti-shock system helps prevent annoying interruptions. Listen through headphones or use the built-in stereo speakers. A wireless remote control will come in handy when you're sitting across the room from the player, as when you have it connected to a TV.

It supports multiple audio language tracks and multilingual subtitles, and you can select from multiple camera angles on DVDs providing that option. Among other key features are 6-mode picture zoom, 4-speed slow motion, fast forward and reverse search, chapter preview ("digest") mode, random play, and repeat play--a feature that's especially useful for trade shows or demonstrations.

What's in the Box
CD player, a high-capacity rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack (external), a remote control, remote battery, stereo headphones, a carrying case, an AC/DC power adapter, a vehicle DC power adapter, audio/video hookup cables, and a user's manual.

Product Description

The revolutionary ViewSonic PS790 Short Depth monitor is the first of its kind. In addition to high resolution and refresh rates, this 19" (18.0" viewable) monitor fits in the space of a conventional 15" (various viewable) monitor. Fully loaded with features, such as an ultra fine 0.25mm dot pitch and SuperClear screen technology with advanced Invar shadow mask for enhanced colors and image sharpness, this is the perfect choice for professional users requiring space efficiency and high performance. Don't settle for ordinary when you can have the extraordinary-the PS790.

Amazon.com Review

Proof that big things sometimes come in small packages, ViewSonic's PS790 19-inch monitor occupies less space than a typical 17-inch model. This alone would make it an attractive choice for those who require a large screen but don't have space to spare. However, the PS790 happens to be an excellent monitor to boot.

The PS790's 0.25-millimeter dot pitch provides a sharper picture than usual for a 19-inch monitor, especially when it comes to text quality. Onscreen controls, which you access through a set of front-panel buttons, provide access to the usual functions--color controls, video level, screen size, and position. You can also access brightness/contrast controls from the front panel.

Windows 98 automatically installs the PS790's software drivers. ViewSonic provides a CD-ROM with the required software if you are running Windows 95. (The CD-ROM also includes a collection of screen savers.) If you are a Mac user, you can enjoy the benefits of this monitor, but you'll need to purchase a separate Macintosh adapter to enable compatibility.

ViewSonic's PS790 is an ideal choice for graphics professionals, Web publishers, and game enthusiasts. And if you're upgrading from a 17-inch monitor, it will get the job done in the same amount of space, or less. --John Frederick Moore

    5 out of 5 stars Still running like a charm!.......2004-12-24

    This monitor has been great being over four years old. It was manufactured in Oct1998. I'm sure there are many power users for monitors and there is always the issue of cutting on and off or using a screen saver. This monitor has been through hell. I don't waste power or use power saving, it's the on/off switch. I also use it average 5 to 15 hours a day, depending on what game I'm playing. I also use this as a power monitor with a 4 port KVM switch and switch through 3 computers contiuously when working online. This monitor has taken the regular abuse of being moved over seven times and being hit on occation, depending on how bad I'm doing at the game I'm playing. I would buy this monitor as a replacement today since it is out of production, mine was around $650.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Monitor!.......2004-11-28

    I've had it for four years and couldn't be happier. I'm a heavy Gamer as well and Graphics are important to me. Huge Screen and fits in Small space.

    1 out of 5 stars Worst monitor I have ever had !.......2004-08-12

    I bought three Viewsonic monitors over the past three years(PS790, GS790-2, and E771), and man, what a huge mistake! They are all dead now while ten-year old Dell monitors are still kicking.

    Don't expect it to last long, if you buy one. I will never ever buy any Viewsonic brand in my life time !

    5 out of 5 stars A great monitor -- and now a great deal, too........2003-10-08

    (Note: I actually own a PF790, which is what they used to call this model until a couple of years ago. There may have been slight changes to the monitor since I bought mine. I'm sure the quality has gone up in general.)

    This is a great monitor if you want a screen larger than 17" and you are both a) short on desk space, and b) don't want to (or can't) shell out the cash for an LCD display. Although it lacks the perfectly flat screens of newer CRTs, the picture quality on the PS790 is still very good, and of course the significant size savings helps in a cramped environment (like a college dorm room, where I used mine for four years). Despite being 19" from corner to corner, this thing is about the same depth as a 17" monitor, or a cheap 15" model. It supports fairly high resolutions and refresh rates -- again, this is not a professional graphics monitor, but it's more than suitable for any home user.

    I'm finally looking to replace my aging monitor (the brightness and contrast are both slowly fading after about 4-5 years of heavy use) -- and I seriously may replace it with another one of these. Or two, considering the price. One good 17" LCD (the same screen size) is about $500.

    5 out of 5 stars See it to believe it!!.......2003-05-23

    Excellent monitor in every sense. I couldn't believe I was using the old monitor until I switched to this one. I bought a used one for around $$ and it was worth every penny of it. I would say buy it to believe it!
