COMMERCIAL LINE OF LCD MONITORS FROM
LG ELECTRONICS COMBINES STYLE AND FUNCTIONALITY


LG Showcases 55-inch LCD and 15-inch Tablet Monitor at InfoComm 2005

LG Electronics is demonstrating its expanded product portfolio for the professional AV communications and systems integration sector at InfoComm 2005 this week - unveiling a 55-inch liquid crystal display (LCD) high-definition monitor and innovative 15-inch LCD tablet monitor.

"LG's latest lineup of commercial LCD monitors reaffirms the company's role as a top-tier provider of professional AV communications technology," said Ron Snaidauf, vice president, Commercial Products, LG Electronics USA, Inc. "LG's booth (#2700) gives visitors a chance to experience LG's LCD monitors in various commercial settings - from sports arenas and classrooms to airports and beyond."

At the pinnacle of LG's LCD line is the 55-inch LCD HDTV monitor (Model L5500C), the largest in production. The award-winning, direct-view LCD monitor features a progressive scan resolution of 1920 x 1080p - the highest resolution currently available on any HDTV display worldwide - which provides an incredibly sharp viewing experience. Perfect for any business application where the highest quality image is essential, the unit has a contrast ratio of 550:1 and brightness of 500 cd/m2.

LG will also feature its 42-inch LCD monitor (Model L4200A) that sports a resolution of 1366 x 768 and a 1200:1 contrast ratio. Both models incorporate LG's Super In-Plane-Switching (Super IPS) technology, which provides the industry's fastest response time and a 178-degree viewing angle - the widest on the market today - for distortion-free viewing from almost any angle.

Another product showcased at InfoComm is LG's 15-inch Tablet Monitor (Model L1530TM). Ideal for any boardroom or classroom, the monitor allows for on-the-spot modifications to any computer-based presentation. Teachers or corporate professionals can share ideas with a group without having to turn their backs to the audience, working and writing on the screen directly.

Perfect for collaboration and communication in the most effective manner possible, users can input data, pictures and documents directly on the monitor and store them. The unit also incorporates Super IPS technology, and its dual hinge stand and ergonomic design delivers comfort and convenience. The unit comes in either black or silver.

In addition to the 55-inch and 42-inch LCDs and 15-inch Tablet Monitor, LG's monitor lineup includes multiple commercial displays that offer a wide variety of solutions to meet the needs of the professional AV communications and systems integration markets.
