Device Brings Digital Images From the Computer to the TV
LAS VEGAS, March 2, 2003 - Lexar Media, Inc. (Nasdaq: LEXR), a leading designer, developer and marketer of award-winning high-performance digital media and accessories, today announces its second-generation multi-language Digital Photo Player. Digital Photo Player is a compact, remote controlled device that brings digital images to the living room by connecting digital memory cards directly to a television.
The new Digital Photo Player is faster than the previous version and now supports six popular memory formats including CompactFlash I/II, Memory Stick, Secure Digital, Smart Media and MultiMediaCards. The new player also supports high-resolution JPEG images generated from computers or cameras of up to six megapixels. From the couch, users can use the player to scan thumbnails, select images to zoom, rotate or delete and view their pictures in slide show mode on a television.
"Our Digital Photo Player provides consumers an easy and comfortable way to share images with others using their TV," said David Klenske, director of product marketing, Lexar Media. "In addition, the new features in this version allow consumers to store JPEG's that have been edited with computer software to be viewed on the television, which allows for more flexibility in creating custom slide shows."
Digital Photo Player connects to the television set via a standard composite video port or S-video port. The infrared remote serves as primary user interface for accessing and managing all images displayed on the television screen.
The Digital Photo Player is expected to ship in March with suggested retail pricing of $79.99. The player comes with free technical support and one-year warranty.
