[SyntaxOlevia37LCDangle] Additional Features and Info
For convenient viewing from multiple sources, the Olevia 32-inch and 37-inch feature dual built-in NTSC TV tuners for displaying split screens and Picture-in-Picture (PIP) capability. Several video and audio inputs are included such as HDTV component inputs (YPbPr and YcbCr 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i), VGA, DVI HDCP, S-video, and RCA composite and audio. When connected to a PC using the VGA input, the Olevia LCD TVs function as a high quality multimedia display highlighting their ability to simultaneously watch TV or DVD movies on half of a split screen while surfing the Internet and accessing email or PC documents on the other half. Two 15 watts (LT32HV) or 20 watts (LT37HV) speakers deliver high quality surround sound. The Olevia LCD TVs' thin profiles of 4.6-inch (LT32HV) and 5.6-inch (LT37HV) make them easy to attach to a wall using an optional VESA-standard mounting kit.

Price & Availability
Priced at $1,999 (MSRP), the Olevia LT32HV and the $2,999 (MSRP) Olevia LT37HV are currently available. To protect consumers' investments, Syntax provides a standard free on-site one-year warranty and options to purchase extended warranties. Syntax's family of Olevia LCD TVs are currently sold through leading consumer electronics retailers including ABC Warehouse, American TV, CompuSmart (Hartco), Dakota TV, DataVision, hhgregg, Micro Center, RC Willey, Rent-A-Center, Staples, and many other authorized resellers.

Olevia 50-Inch LCOS
For consumers who desire a large, truly affordable rear projection TV, Syntax's new 50-inch Olevia LCOS (liquid crystal on silicon) technology TV (LCT50HV) is also available from PC Connection (www.pcconnection.com) currently priced at $2,099.

Syntax's Olevia 50-inch LCOS RPTV incorporates a three-panel subsystem (R,G,B) that allows excellent color reproduction and vivid images with a remarkably high pixel resolution. Utilizing a 1080i HDTV format with true 720P images, the 50-inch LCOS TV consists of liquid crystals on silicon, acting like tiny mirrors, with a highly reflective aluminum coating. When light passes through the glass panels to the lens, it is either reflected or blocked, thereby modulating the light to produce bright, clear, stunning images under any room lighting.

The Olevia LCOS TV features 1388 x 780 native resolution (1920 x 1200 under DVI and 1280 x 1024 under VGA), 16:9 aspect ratio, a typical 1000:1 contrast ratio, 1,000 Nits brightness with preset and adjustable modes, progressive scanning, 2:3 pull down, a wide 170/170 horizontal viewing angle, and 3D comb filter for sharp images. The Olevia LCOS TV includes NTSC signal support, noise reduction, five positions of Picture-in-Picture with three enlargement settings, DVI/HDCP inputs for current video equipment compatibility, and two 25W audio surround sound speakers. In addition to the Olevia's component inputs (YCbCr and YPbPr), it has a VGA port for connection to a PC as a 50-inch multimedia display ideal for use in corporate boardrooms.
