The X-Vision acts as a high speed web terminal with clear, legible screens for web browsing and email access with a wireless key board. This is a special attribute and proprietary solution which differentiates it from other companies entering this evolving market space.
The X-VISION also acts as a complete Karaoke system with access to virtually unlimited titles via the internet or subscription through the service provider which the company believes to be of significant interest to both Asian and North American consumers.
This product is the natural evolution of the digital set top box as a receiver tuner to a fully integrated multi- media and high speed internet station.
