LG J10HD cinema system
LG is readying the J10HD, a home theater system that uses cues from the Chocolate mobile phones -- these include a glossy black exterior and touch-sensitive buttons. The J10HD delivers 75W on two stereo channels, plus another 150W through a subwoofer; 5.1 sound can be simulated. Attractive to a modern audience should be the 80GB hard drive, which gets its music from CDs ripped directly from the DVD player, or radio programs recorded by the user.
Aside from standard read-only discs, the DVD drive can also play recordable media, with files in MP3, WMA, DivX or MPEG-4 format. To complete connection options, the system can upconvert HDMI video to 1080i, and accept more music via USB connections to computers and portable audio players. Shipment to Britain is expected in July 2007 at an unknown price. [via Pocket-lint]
