Posted on: Tuesday, 5 October 2004, 06:00 CDT
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Video Without Boundaries, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: VDWB) , a pioneer in the emerging broadband media device market, today is announcing the development of the MediaREADY(TM) 5000 PVR+RW. The MediaREADY(TM) 5000 PVR+RW will combine a suite of popular TV-centric applications for digital media management and communication with an advanced electronic program guide and the ability to record broadcast media on either the internal hard drive or DVD recorder. MediaREADY(TM) 5000 PVR+RW will be available for retailers, distributors, and licensees at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2005.
The MediaREADY(TM) 5000 PVR+RW, suggested retail price $899, lets users customize viewing by recording shows on a built-in computer hard drive or DVD recorder. Made popular by TiVo, the concept of time shifting television is gaining mass acceptance. The functionality of this unit is, however, unmatched in the industry. Users can access digital media files on the unit's internal drive, any PC or on the same in-home network, connected peripheral devices. In addition, the unit brings On-demand content, E-mail, Internet browser, Games, and MP3/CD/DVD/MPEG-1/MPEG-2/MPEG-4 playback to any connected television.
"We are setting the industry standard for value and quality in the convergence consumer electronics world," said Jeffrey Harrell, President and CEO of Video Without Boundaries, Inc. "Product offerings by industry giants such as Phillips Electronics, Pioneer Electronics, Samsung, and Sony to name a few, have yet to offer a complete digital media convergence product that links PCs with living room entertainment centers wirelessly in one unit. The MediaREADY(TM) 5000 PVR+RW is the complete package at an affordable price."
The MediaREADY(TM) 5000 PVR+RW will join the MediaREADY(TM) family of products which already include the MediaREADY(TM) 400, MediaREADY(TM) 4000, MediaREADY(TM) 4000+RW and MediaREADY(TM) Module. All products support the C.A.C. Media Content Delivery Network, announced last week, which will deliver DVD quality video content to MediaREADY-enabled TVs over the Internet. The network will support a wide range of content including Channel Programming (Subscription Video on Demand) and Library Subscription Video on Demand.
