Feed Mitsubishi announces new 20.1-inch widescreen display (engadget.com)

Filed under: Displays

It looks like Mitsubishi is refreshing a few of the monitors it released in Japan last year, with the company announcing its new 20.1-inch RDT202WM-S model today, presumably a replacement for the similarly-spec'd RDTD201WM. This time around the monitor gets to add HDCP compliance to its list of specs, not to mention a spiffy new glossy display. Otherwise, the monitor will give you the standard 1680 x 1050 resolution, along with a decent 800:1 contrast ratio, 5 ms response time, 450cd/m2 brightness, and the requisite DVI input. If that sounds like it'll fit the bill, you'll be able to snag one of these on June 15th (in Japan only, naturally) in your choice of black or white for ¥49,800, or just over $400.

They report via e-mail that the signal loss was due to a software upgrade that resulted in loss of signal from one of the two satellites. The latest e-mail tells subs that we will have signal again sometime by midday, having missed the "early morning" deadline set in the e-mail sent last night..."

You must be a newbie. I've been a respected member of the Slashdot community for close to a decade now. As a long time developer and community leader it's unfortunate that I haven't had much time to post lately.

He reported 100% real news (that Bush didn't complete his military obligation and was AWOL) but unfortunately had included a single piece of possibly forged evidence in with the body of completely true evidence.

Yes, Hello.

It would seem after many years of posting to slahsdot I've been struck with a "bitchslap" and have thusly decided to retire, rather than fight against the humourless cretins who wielded their heavy handed justice on my account.
