Part of what makes iPod touch so amazing is that iTunes is literally at your fingertips. A Wi-Fi connection and a quick tap are all it takes to get instant access to millions of songs and thousands of movies and TV shows. Not to mention applications, audiobooks, and free podcasts and iTunes U lectures. Preview and buy that album you’ve been wanting. Rent that film everyone raved about, or make it part of your collection. iTunes on iPod touch is your doorway to endless entertainment possibilities.

Surf the web, send email, and get directions from anywhere you are.

Built-in Wi-Fi means you can check your favorite blogs, write an email with a photo attached, or find out how to get to that new restaurant. When you think about it, iPod touch is a computer in your pocket. How handy is that?

Wireless
If you’re somewhere with a wireless network, iPod touch instantly recognizes it. If it’s free Wi-Fi, you’re good to go. Launch any one of your Wi-Fi-dependent apps, such as Safari or iTunes, and you’re on. Some wireless networks may require a password, but iPod touch has that covered, too. Just enter the password once, and iPod touch remembers it. So the next time you’re within range of that network, you’re connected automatically.

Mail
Email on iPod touch looks and acts just like email on your computer. View your messages in rich HTML, including attachments. Mail recognizes file types such as .doc, .jpg, .mp3, and many others. And setting up Mail is easy because iPod touch automatically enters settings for popular accounts including Gmail, MobileMe, Yahoo!, AOL, and Microsoft Exchange.

Keyboard
Typing on iPod touch is easy. That’s because it has an intelligent keyboard that predicts and suggests words as you type. Writing something lengthy? When you turn iPod touch on its side, the keyboard switches from portrait to landscape with larger keys and more room to type.

Safari
Safari — an advanced web browser designed for Mac and PC computers — also comes on iPod touch. Just connect to a Wi-Fi network, and you can use Safari for nearly everything you do using a web browser on a computer. In fact, web pages look exactly the same on iPod touch as they do on your computer.

Accelerometer
The accelerometer inside iPod touch detects when you rotate iPod touch from portrait to landscape, then automatically changes what you see onscreen. But the beauty of the accelerometer comes into play when you’re actually in play. For instance, in racing games where your entire iPod becomes the steering wheel. Or balance games, such as Topple.

Multi-Touch
What sets iPod touch apart from traditional handheld gaming devices is its revolutionary Multi-Touch interface. It means you’re not just playing a game, you’re interacting with the game. Turn your fingers into an expert skateboarder. Test your reflexes as you’re challenged to tap through the beats of a song. You can even transform iPod touch into a musical instrument such as a drum set or a guitar. It’s all thanks to the brilliance of Multi-Touch technology.

REGZA is a collection of award-winning LCD televisions that give you a great picture, superb sound and look stylish too – just about everything you need from a television. We have expanded our impressive REGZA range with the AV series, which helps us push the boundaries of the high definition revolution ever further. REGZA AV series models feature our high performance picture processing technology – Active Vision LCD. This technology is constantly evolving to take advantage of technical advancements designed to enhance the colour, detail, movement and contrast of the images you watch.

Fast moving objects move across the screen smoothly with virtually no motion blur thanks to our Real Speed Progressive technology – a feature that will be appreciated by sports fans. By reducing the number of conversions the signal undergoes before it reaches the panel processing chip, our Real Digital technology is able to utilise more of the original signal to reproduce the picture more accurately. The way a television handles colour tones, highlights and shadows is extremely important if images are to be brought to life on screen. All AV series models possess Dynamic Contrast technology, which delivers high-bright whites and enhanced dark detail by controlling the LCD panel backlight.

All AV models have integrated digital tuners, an important feature with the switch from analogue to digital signal transmission already having begun. Take a good look at the AV series and the REGZA family likeness is unmistakable, with the narrow frame surround given a contemporary gloss black finish. The stylish looks hide a wealth of audio technology designed to deliver a powerful audio performance from the integrated speaker system. Buy an AV series LCD television and it will quickly become the centre piece of your home entertainment system thanks to its great looks and the quality of its picture and sound reproduction.

HD Ready
All our REGZA AV series models are HD Ready, which guarantees compliance with the standards set for HD broadcasts and playback media. The dramatic increase in picture quality being offered by high definition broadcasts has to be matched by advances in display technology if you are to benefit from the HD revolution. We are at the forefront of technological advancement, ensuring the perfect integration of technologies to deliver you the ultimate viewing experience.

We constantly modify our technology and Active Vision LCD is no exception. It is now better than ever; delivering high quality screen images by enhancing the four core elements of a television picture:Active Vision LCD Picture Processing
Colour – MPEG noise reduction and 8-BIT colour gamut processing produces screen images with much smoother colour gradation and a reduction in the ‘blocking’ effect that is often noticeable with large areas of colour of a similar detail – both high definition and standard definition images are produced with increased detail compared to conventional LCD televisions. Complex up-scaling technology allows every available pixel to be utilised and intricate lines and detail are produced without jagged edges thanks to complex de-interlacing technology.

Movement – our Real Speed Continuous Progressive technology removes motion blur and maintains the benefit offered by progressive scan over interlaced image technology. This giant leap forward in the rendering of fast moving objects is particularly attractive to sports fans and overcomes the blurring often found with conventional LCD televisions.

Contrast – Active Vision LCD constantly monitors and adjusts the contrast levels required by the original signal. The system works in harmony with our Dynamic Contrast feature to produce the optimum contrast levels; dramatically increasing black levels in dark scenes without compromising bright white levels in lighter more colourful scenes.

Dynamic Contrast
Good picture detail depends on getting the right balance between brightness and contrast. Our Dynamic Contrast technology automatically adjusts the LCD backlight depending on the level of brightness required. Dimming the backlight enables the system to reproduce fine detail and more realistic dark scenes, without compromising brightness levels in lighter, more colourful scenes. Increasing the brightness of the backlight in bright scenes will give images more intensity whilst retaining the contrast essential for great detail.
HDMI connectivity
The High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
is now regarded as the industry standard for connecting modern audio visual components, having replaced SCART as the connection of choice. HDMI transmits uncompressed digital video and multi-channel audio content through a single cable. Use of this single cable greatly simplifies the installation of home entertainment systems and ensures the very highest quality picture and sound reproduction. All AV series models have two HDMI connections offering convenient connection to more than one HD source, without having to continually disconnect and reconnect your hardware. These connections will be included as standard on almost all future digital components, HD televisions and

Powerful Audio Performance
It’s important the quality of the sound you listen to, is as good as the pictures you watch and the REGZA AV series won’t let you down. A powerful audio performance is delivered by full range NICAM stereo, further enhanced by the optional Bass Boost feature. When you hear the output for yourself, you will not believe all that sound could possibly come through the slimline speakers, cleverly positioned under the screen – it delivers so much, from so little.

The integrated digital tuner gives access to Freeview, the terrestrial digital broadcast service that can be received through existing TV aerials**. The digital signal delivers high quality digital sound and images without the interference and ghosting associated with conventional analogue signals. There’s no end to the entertainment, with Freeview currently offering over 40 TV channels and more than 20 digital radio stations, a superb digital text service and a high-tech electronic programme guide.
The easy-to-use on-screen menu delivers a wealth of useful information including:
•           8 day at-a-glance listings
•           Programme summaries
•           What’s on – now and next
•           Personal reminders
