Kensington intros flat-panel accessories
updated 11:15 am EDT, Thu August 22, 2002
Kensington today debuted seven new products that it claims "significantly improves style, comfort and productivity when using flat panel computer monitors." The Flat Panel Monitor Stand ($60) positions the monitor up off the desktop at an adjustable height, has two adjustable shelves, and supports flat panel monitors up to 21" or 35 lbs. The Flat Panel Desk Mount Arm ($180) allows monitors to "float" and rotate in virtually any location and position above the desktop with a 9" arm that extends from an adjustable base in any direction, rotates a full 360 degrees at its base, and tilts 90 degrees (up, down, left or right). The Flat Panel Cubicle Hanger ($120) "takes the monitor completely off the desktop" using a height adjustable, tilt-enabled arm mounted to the the side of the cubicle. It also introduced new Flat Panel Glare Filters (15"--$120 and 17"--$140) to protect the sensitive LCD screens and reduce eyestrain by improving contrast and color definition and new Flat Panel Privacy Filters (15"--$250 and 17"--$330), which blurs the monitor's display when viewed from either side at more than 25 degrees from center for improved privacy.

isn't it ironic?
didn't people used to complain about the viewing radius of LCD monitors? And now that they've got the viewing radius up, people need their LCD monitors to have a minute viewing radius? ah, progress.
