Ideal for a bedroom, office, or kitchen, Panasonic’s new trio of beautifully sleek
LCD TVs delivers superb picture quality without gobbling floor space, desk
space, or counter space. Each TV is built around a perfectly flat LCD panel that
is both slim (under 3
1
⁄
4
" deep) and lightweight (even the 20" model weighs
under 16 lbs.). These TVs can be carried or placed almost anywhere!
All three models provide Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV) picture resolution,
which means they can display a 480p signal from a progressive-scan DVD player.
Plus, a built-in progressive-scan line-doubler improves the look of all your stan-
dard NTSC signals (antenna, cable, VCR, etc.), resulting in smooth images with
no visible scan lines. And the picture will stay bright and pinpoint sharp year in
and year out, thanks to LCD’s robustness. If you’re a video game fan, here’s some
good news — because flat-panel LCD screens don’t use a coating of phosphor
dots, you never have to worry about an image “burning in” permanently.
Whether you use the supplied stand or mount the TV on the wall (see the
OmniMount brackets on the facing page), you’ll love the look of LCD!

The single best word to describe Samsung’s
HDTV-ready 22" LTM225W is “wide.” First,
its rectangular 16:9 screen is ideal for
widescreen material like DVDs and HDTV
(HDTV reception requires a separate HDTV
tuner — please call for a recommendation).
The LTM225W also offers an exception-
ally wide viewing angle. Some inexpensive
LCD TVs are based on computer monitors,
which are intended to be viewed head-on
from arm’s length. But real-world TV view-
ing often calls for wide side-to-side viewing
angles and varying distances. This TV’s
bright, high-contrast images can be enjoyed
from nearly any position in your room.
When it comes to connecting video
sources, your options are wide-open. Analog
signals like VCR and satellite TV are upconverted
by the built-in line-doubler. LCD’s robust reliabil-
ity makes this model a smart choice for those in
search of an all-in-one display for TV, PC and
game console use. Imagine surfing the web using
a 22" high-resolution PC monitor!
Finally, this panel’s thin profile and light
weight offer a wide array of placement options.
Key Features:
HDTV monitor (compatible with HDTV/SDTV
formats – when connected to a separate HDTV tuner – and dis-
plays them at 720p) • flat LCD screen • 1280 x 720 pixels • 170
