CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif., June 23, 2005 — Westinghouse Digital Electronics, a leading North American LCD TV and monitor provider, today announced the availability of its 17-inch wide LCD monitor, offering a product that moves monitors into convergence with consumer electronics.

Westinghouse Digital is bringing its flat panel TV experience into the computer monitor industry with the introduction of the 17-inch-wide, highly stylized monitor, featuring a clean white chassis with silver trim. The new LCD HD-Grade™ monitor has the ability to allow consumers to use one product to meet their needs, including desktop work on spreadsheets, drafting e-mails, surfing the Internet, watching DVD movies or TV (when used with a PC), playing HD-video games and more.

“Our new HD-Grade 17-inch monitor offers faster response times, wider viewing angles, brighter images and higher contrast ratios compared to the typical computer monitor,” said Douglas Woo, president of Westinghouse Digital Electronics. “Westinghouse Digital will continue to shape the LCD industry by introducing innovative products that meet consumers’ demands for style, function and affordability.”

The 17-inch-wide monitor represents the latest in contemporary electronics stylizing and is ideal for use in the kitchen, bedroom and home office. Consumers can watch DVD movies and HDTV on the computer monitor with a 16:9 screen or take advantage of the screen’s wide display by playing HD-video games. The monitor is quite versatile because users can easily view documents and multitask on another project because the screen size allows for many windows to be open and read simultaneously.
