IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 28, 2004--Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America's Presentation Products Division, maker of award-winning, high-quality presentation and display products, today introduced its SE2U projector, with a suggested retail price of $995. Improvements in brightness, contrast ratio and lamp life make Mitsubishi's SE2U projector an economic and cost-effective projector in the under-$1,000 display category.

"The SE2U is a full-featured projector at a discount price," said James Chan, director, projector product marketing for Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America. "It offers professional-quality presentation tools in a low-cost package with no compromises, raising the bar overall in the important sub-$1,000 projector market."

The new SE2U projector blasts 1500 lumens, bright enough for most office, classroom and conference room conditions, and a 2,000:1 contrast ratio, providing brighter whites while offering better colors and details in darker shades. Its efficient 2,500-hour lamp typically lasts years under normal operating conditions, making the SE2U a cost-effective projector for the busy, budget-conscious presenter.

In addition to a computer input, Mitsubishi's SE2U projector displays video signals from VCRs or DVD players, making it a versatile and effective tool for multimedia presentations. The projector, which comes with a carrying case, weighs about six pounds, light enough for quick and easy portability between meetings.

"The sub-$1,000 market is an important market for Mitsubishi," said Aki Ninomiya, vice president, Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America. "By meeting our customers' needs through improved performance and an affordable price point, we initiate them to the experience of Mitsubishi products, and hopefully open their doors to other Mitsubishi presentation products for their future needs."
