- Viewsonic premieres the VPD400 MovieBook media player for $130
- Hard to get excited...It's basically an iPod Touch without the touch, and more importantly, without iTunes. What's the point? When I saw the name "MovieBook" I was thinking it would be something more Kindle-sized and folding. Now, that would be cool. Something the size of a paper-back book that folds...

- Viewsonic introduces $100 VMP70 HD media player without network connectivity
- Network connectivity is everywhere.This would be a show stopper for me. Once a device like this is set up who is going to want to bother plugging and unplugging devices. For $30 more I would choose the connectivity features. But then again I would never buy Viewsonic. Every Viewsonic...

- ViewSonic VX2433wm
- The ViewSonic VX2433wm is a typical Twisted Nematic monitor with DVI and HDMI connections and built-in speakers. It also has several useful color temperature options, but its performance in games and movies is marred by its relatively low brightness level. For about $200, the monitor is a good...

- ViewSonic VG2427wm
- The ViewSonic VG2427wm gets points for a good assortment of ergonomic features--including screen height adjustment, 180 degrees swivel, and 25 degrees tilt. It also includes three USB ports and great movie and game performance. Yet, even with these attributes, we find it difficult to recommend the ViewSonic at its slightly...

The model reviewed here, the DPG807, is attractively priced at less than $80 given its 8-inch 4:3 (read: non-wide-screen) display with 256MB internal memory.Overall, the DPG807 is an...

- Viewsonic announces new 22-inch 1080p HDTV for $349
- Even though most viewers would have a hard time differentiating between 720p and 1080p on a 42-inch HDTV, that hasn't stopped TV makers from sprinkling the magic 1080p spec on smaller-size sets. Case in point: Viewsonic has just released a new 22-inch 1080p set (the VT2230) that's designed as a...

Compared with the other 120Hz monitor, the ViewSonic FuHzion vx2265wm. The Samsung has better performance in movies and...

- ViewSonic FuHzion VX2265wm
- The 22-inch ViewSonic VX2255wm FuHzion is simply not worth its $350 price tag. For that price, you get only a DVI connection, poor movie playback quality, limited ergonomic options, and brightness calibration options only for the OSD. Games perform well and the VX225wm includes Nvidia 3D Visions Kit compatibility and...

- ViewSonic VLED221wm
- At $500, the ViewSonic VLED221wm can't keep pace with better monitors, such as the Gateway HD2201, which can be found for at least $300 cheaper. In our tests, the VLED221wm achieved good performance in games and movies, and it includes built-in speakers; however, its lacks an HDMI connection and ergonomic...
