Two Screens Are Better Than One: The InterView Single Unit Dual Monitor

Ever wanted a dual monitor setup, but didn’t want to bother buying and hooking up two separate displays? Well, here’s your dream device: The InterView Single Unit Dual Screen Monitor.

From their website:

The EVGA Interview™ Display is redefining today’s face to face business interaction. With two displays capable of 1440×900 resolution, along with a 1.3 megapixel webcam and three port USB Hub, the EVGA Interview™ Dual Monitor System is not just another display.

The innovation does not stop there however. Both displays are capable of being rotated independently vertically and horizontally. When the display is flipped 180 degrees vertically, the screen intelligently flips so you can effectively share documents, images, and files with ease. This is the ideal monitor for anyone and everyone who communicates face to face.

Looks cool to us, and even that $649.99 price tag doesn’t loom too large.

The HP 2709m is a monster as far as PC monitors are concerned, being 27″ and with 16:9 aspect ratio, it’s ideal for big time graphics editing or movie/TV show watching on your PC.

This 27-inch monitor includes 1920×1080 Full HD resolution, 5ms response times (which includes a 3ms Gray to Gray response time), 1,000:1 contrast ratio, with a 30,000 dynamic contrast ratio. This is a heavy duty device for big time computing, obviously.

Sounds is decent too with a 4-Watt speaker system, anti-glare screen, and various outputs including HDMi, DVI and VGA.

As you’d expect, a monster screen like this ain’t cheap, retailing for around $500 or so on its release.

It’s a world in 3 dimensions: Viewsonic goes 3D at CES

Wouldn’t it be cool to have a monitor that displayed most of your content in 3D? Viewsonic thinks so, and unveiled a line of new 3D devices at CES 2009.

Viewsonic displayed two new 3D products with the VX2265WM desktop LCD monitor and the PJD6220-3D portable projector. Of course, to see the 3-D, glasses are required. They were not the cheap cardboard red and blue ones, but NVIDIA GeForce 3D Vision glasses.

They displayed a game of Tomb Raider: Underworld that was very impressive, according to reports, in pure 3D. The glasses do need to be charged, but once full, they’re good for 40-50 hours.

The Viewsonic VX2265WM is a 120Hz desktop LCD monitor with a (almost full) resolution of 1680 x 1050 HD. It can play over 350 existing video game titles in full 3D, and that’s not all. The device is fully Windows certified and uses SRS HD sound technology with stereo speakers that are blended seamlessly into the design.

It seems that video and companies are traveling down the 3D path. The new monitor will debut in a few weeks and be priced at around $399, so feel free to start saving now for the future of entertainment.
