Business Wire, April 18, 2006

IRVINE, Calif. -- Toshiba's Digital Products Division, a division of Toshiba America Information Systems Inc., today introduced the TDP-T100U DLP(TM) (digital light processing) mobile projector. Toshiba's latest projector features high-quality brightness at 2,700 ANSI lumens in a mobile form factor and is designed for small-to medium-sized businesses, mobile presenters, video gamers and weekend movie and sports enthusiasts for $1,599.(1)

"Because of its high brightness, this is the ideal projector for those presenting in unpredictable or less than perfect ambient light conditions such as a room with lots of windows," said Sam Malik, director of projector marketing, Toshiba Digital Products Division. "With its highly transportable form factor, the TDP-T100U comes packed with new convenience features as well to make any presentation a snap."

The TDP-T100U's feature enhancements that Toshiba is incorporating in its latest line of projectors include:

--One-touch auto setup on a fully loaded presentation remote to ensure worry-free, professional presentations even in the most unforgiving environments;

--"Blackboard" function that allows a presenter to make a wall color adjustment when projecting on a non-screen surface for more attractive and readable presentations;

--Instant power shut down capability enables the projector to power off once disconnected from the outlet with no cool-down time required;

--Digital zoom function on the remote control allows the presenter to zoom in on a specific image presentation element such as spreadsheet numbers or other important details;

--Active monitor loop-through allows users to view their computer monitor even when the projector is off.

Weighing 6.6 pounds, the TDP-T100U also offers a 2000:1 contrast ratio, XGA 1024x768 native resolution to project text and images, and Toshiba's unique Natural Color Enhancer2, a color correction circuitry that makes the screen color look more natural with sharp and vivid images.

The TDP-T100U projector offers users an array of connectivity options, including composite video, component and S-video inputs, audio in and variable audio output capabilities. The special monitor-out capabilities allow users to display and view images on a monitor and screen simultaneously.

The TDP-T100U also includes automatic vertical keystone correction (plus or minus 30 degrees) that instantly projects a square image even when the projector is set up at a steep offset angle to the screen.

The Toshiba TDP-T100U is currently available through Toshiba's authorized distributors, VARs, retailers, mail-order outlets and www.ToshibaDirect.com.
