Uniden introduces 19-inch Hello Kitty LCD TV, parents weep

We'd generally assume this was just some kind of sick joke, but given Uniden's history of cranking out kid-lovin', themed LCD TVs, we're being forced to accept the fact that this here unit is indeed real. The TL19TX1 is all set to launch next month in black or white and feature a 19-inch 1,440 x 810 resolution display, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, integrated digital TV tuner, twin 3-watt speakers, HDMI / component / composite inputs and enough Hello Kitty branding to make the average guy gag. Over in Japan, the unit will be selling for ¥69,800 ($647), but who knows how much it'll cost for you to import it. And yes, you'll be importing one for your little angel.

1440x810... wtf?

[AJ @ Jun 24th 2008 10:47PM]

It's still 16:9.. just in W-HK-VGA rez

I'm ashamed to admit it, but I'm deeply in love with hello kitty.

I spend far too much on the overpriced merchandise. :(

but it's so damned cute!

I am going to make a Domo-kun hallowen costume.

Thats right. A 14 year old in a domo-kun costume.

heh, i can totally see my 6yr old niece getting one of these soon...

[Eric @ Jun 24th 2008 10:25PM]

I have a 32" Polaroid that I paid $680 for.

[Gerard @ Jun 24th 2008 10:56PM]

I'll love you long long time clak for 2 dolla

[PCIV @ Jun 24th 2008 11:25PM]

Maybe your attitude had something to do with her not loving you?

[grull27 @ Jun 24th 2008 11:44PM]

Thanks for this waste of time Engadget!

[Anthony H. @ Jun 24th 2008 11:58PM]

God dammit.

He's back.

[letstakeawalk @ Jun 25th 2008 12:46AM]

Clak, stop bragging. Just because you've been on one date, with one girl, and even though you didn't last very long... the rest of us living in our basements can't imagine how great your life must be.

Seriously, can you help me set up my projector? I hear you're an expert on those!

[Haikibutsu @ Jun 25th 2008 1:30AM]

WHAT THE HELL! YOU RUINED A HALF LIFE TWO QUOTE!

[Luke G @ Jun 25th 2008 3:15AM]

Clak is such a cute kid. He tries so hard to pretend he's all grown up ("dated an Asian woman in her twenties, in her twenties "), repeatedly talking about how he has to "support his family" and watching "pr0n" on his iPhone.

Btw, if you want to act like an adult clak or even be a con artist, make sure what you say don't contradict each other. One time you said you were a single, working computer programmer and next an everyday Joe with 3 kids.

What will you ever use HDMI on a 19inch for ? Its a HELLO KITTY tv for J.C.'s sake

[Franco @ Jun 25th 2008 8:19PM]

Because Kids these are smarter than you think. They want HDMI since they can connect it to their xbox 360 or ps3 or even their computer.
