Ultra-Quiet, Ultra-Bright DLP® Projectors All-Purpose for Gov/Ed, SOHO & Business Markets

Irvine, CA, September 19, 2007 --(PR.com)-- BenQ America Corp. announced today the addition of two new DLP projectors to its Mainstream Series, which targets Business, Gov/Ed, and SOHO markets. The new MP622 and MP622c are positioned as best value, all-purpose dependable projectors ideal for small to medium rooms, multiple users, crossover home and office applications, and multimedia school use. Smart, easy-to-use features, high brightness, ultra-low noise levels and exquisite color are complemented by easy maintenance and the established reliability of the BenQ brand.

Brightness that outshines
With respective 2700 and 2200 ANSI lumens, the MP622 and MP622c deliver vibrant colors that do not require blackout conditions, offering classroom and corporate users flexibility with ambient lighting conditions. A 2000:1 contrast ratio coupled with 11 picture modes, Brilliant Color Technology and 3D Color Management further ensure superb picture quality with 100% accurate sRGB color reproduction. Additionally, versatility is afforded with BenQ's one-touch Wall Color Correction for uncompromised picture quality in the absence of a screen.

Multi-User, Multi-Function
With a target market characterized by multiple users displaying various applications, the MP622 and MP622c incorporate features that generously accommodate all usage scenarios. From lectures to office presentations to video watching, both projectors are engineered for extremely quiet operation. Unique airflow and anti-vibration design make both projectors the market's quietest data projectors at only 26/31dB (Eco/Normal mode). The projectors also meet the needs of consumer entertainment, being HDTV compatible and fully supporting 1080i. Five Preset Modes- Cinema, Dynamic, Standard, sRGB and Presentation- and two User Modes allow for fast, one-touch optimized settings. Several other features will particularly appeal to business users. The smart Presentation Timer keeps meetings on track, while the ON/OFF ring tone notifies users when the projector has activated or has cooled and is ready to be powered down. Panel Key Lock prevents accidental derailing of presentations by disabling control buttons on the projector. Additional features such as Auto Adjustment, Quick Auto Search (the industry's fastest search and display of input sources) and Onscreen FAQ facilitate set-up and go.

Designer and Dependable
Like all BenQ digital lifestyle innovations, the MP622/622c is engineered to the highest standards of style and reliability. A midnight black, high gloss finish and aesthetically-pleasing geometric buttons impart a Darth Vader-like air of superiority and importance that will appeal to business users. Quick cooling, high altitude and auto-off capability as well as password protection add to the projectors' low maintenance and dependability. Standard accessories include: Quick Start Guide, CD Owner's Manual, remote control, soft carry case, batteries for R/C, VGA cable and power cord.

The MP622 has an MSRP of $999; the MP622c, $899.
