Philips' new ErgoSensor desktop display demands that you sit up straight
Remember those halcyon days when your mother would chide you to sit up straight should you ever start to slouch? Good news, desk jockeys, because Philips' ErgoSensor desktop monitor is here to stop your stooping now that mom's no longer around -- and it doesn't require you to wear some silly plastic pendant or occupy any of your USB real estate. The 24-inch, 250-nit, 1920 x 1080 display has a sensor in its bezel that watches you while you work, and warns you when your posture becomes poor or if you've been staring at the screen too long. It also informs users how to set up the monitor for optimal viewing distance and ergonomic position. Plus, it can tell when you're not around and shut the screen off to conserve power. We don't know how much money the monitor will cost or even when it'll be available to fix your poor sitting form, but we do know you can learn everything else about it at the source below.
NEC's MultiSync P241W Monitor packs more 'e' than your LCD
We know, it's kind of tough to get excited about yet another 24-inch IPS panel. But, what if we told you that NEC's MultiSync P241W was packing something special... namely, the letter 'e.' No wait, don't go. Look, this 1920 x 1200 e-IPS actually delivers serious, professional-level color reproduction and viewing angles for a price that's not too shabby ($749) given the target audience. In addition to the 8ms response time, ambient light sensor and ECO Mode options, the monitor includes a USB hub with DisplaySync Pro, which allows you to use a single keyboard, mouse and monitor across two PCs. The P241W will start shipping later this month, and check out the gallery below and the PR after the break for more specs. %Gallery-132778%
