VIVITEK SHOWS NEW AFFORDABLE PROFESSIONAL PROJECTOR WITH ANTI-THEFT DETACHABLE KEYPAD AT CES

LAS VEGAS, January 8, 2009 – Vivitek Corporation, a leader in the environmentally responsible manufacture of today’s most innovative visual display and presentation products, has introduced a new projector built for professional venues and classroom settings and will be showing it at this week’s 2009 International Consumer Electronics Show. True to Vivitek’s DLP-only technology commitment the new D735VX uses the latest DLP technology from Texas Instruments and blasts at 3200 ANSI lumens with BrilliantColor technology and a 5-segment color wheel for exceptional brightness and vibrant hues. The new unit also has a snap-off keypad that can be removed and secured in a safe location to discourage theft or unauthorized removal of the projector.

“Once again we built our projector for its intended environment,” said David Chiu, Vivitek’s president. “All segments of the professional projector marketplace will be satisfied with the full feature set on the D735VX. In addition, the attractive price point makes it the newest value projector in the market as well.”

With a full 3W onboard speaker and zoom lens, the D735VX is designed for the larger boardroom, classroom, or auditorium. The unique, detachable keypad also allows for natural, walk-around presentations. With an MSRP of only $1,299, the projector has a 2400:1 contrast ratio with native XGA (1024 x 768 pixels) resolution enabling high-end performance with Vivitek’s low-cost value pricing.

In busy office, school or church environments where room times are at a premium the D735VX is equipped with Vivitek’s exclusive instant shutdown capability. This energy-saving feature allows users to immediately enable ON/OFF functions without wasted time during warm-up and cool-down periods, making for rapid and considerate start-ups and getaways when accommodating tight room schedules and without damage to the projector. Continuing the Vivitek environmental commitment and its consideration for cost-effective and ecologically and energy efficient features, the 7.8 pound unit is built dust- and filter-free, minimizing maintenance and replacement needs and keeping the projector running at top energy efficient levels. The new projector also has a lower wattage Eco-Mode lamp setting that reduces brightness by approximately 20% for reduced energy use and extended lamp life up to 4000 hours.

The vertical digital Keystone correction feature allows users to quickly and easily adjust the screen image with consideration for the realities of today’s presentation environments. A full selection of connectivity features on the D735VX include video and PC compatibilities, a USB control terminal, and an RS-232C communication port for full integration into classroom or meeting rooms equipped with white boards or remote control systems.

Availability, Warranty
Vivitek’s D735VX is available now through authorized Vivitek dealers and distributors nationwide. The projector carries a 3-year limited warranty on parts and labor, a 1-year lamp warranty, and 5-year DLP chip warranty.
