DarbeeVision announces Cobalt video processor set to enhance any consumer's content
If you are not a videophile, then you've probably never heard of the Darblet video processor. While those obesesed with the best picture quality money can buy, were head over heels for the little box that you put in-line between your HD set-top and your HDTV, via HDMI, the $349 retail price deterred most. The company is back with a more consumer and gamer focused model, the Cobalt. At $269 this phone sized box has modes for video, gaming and "Full Pop" and is only HDMI 1.3 compatible -- the original Darblet is 1.4 so it supports 3D and Deep Color. Although this price point makes it more interesting, it isn't exactly affordable enough that everyone will think the picture quality improvement is worth the cost of admission. The press release that follows includes even more details, but if you are really interested you might want to go ahead and pre-order one as it is expected to be available late this month.
