byd:sign releases first DivX compatible HDTV in Japan

It may seem like everything is DivX compatible these days, but surprisingly it's taken until now for the official stamp to find its way onto a TV in Japan. byd:sign just popped out this 19-inch LCD HDTV w/ DVD player, making it the first one to carry the logo guaranteeing interoperability with all manner of video content. Available in black or white, the DC-1902DW series is a 1440x900 res, 500:1 contrast ratio screen that also get its media via a USB 2.0 port, SD / MMC / Memory Stick slot or the usual combo of HDMI inputs and digital/analog tuners. byd:sign CEO Katsumi Iizuka doesn't plan for this to be the last, so those Naruto RAWs you've been downloading should go direct to many HDTVs pretty soon.

ByD:sign's new low-cost XGA 42-inch plasma


If those 42 and 47-inch 1080p LCDs from ByD:sign we saw on Monday were just too much excitement for you, there's always this new PH-4201DFK to bring things back down to earth. The 42-inch plasma sports a mere 1,024 x 768 resolution, and while the 1,200 nit brightness and 10,000:1 contrast ratio actually sound fairly decent for the price (179,800 yen, $1,555 US), we're sure you'll manage to curb your enthusiasm somehow or other. The display can handle a 1080p signal over HDMI and includes optional stereo speakers along with a customary compliment of ports. You should be able to pick one up in Japan now.
