Tote it to the office, take it in the car--the Axion AXN-7080 LCD television and DVD player combo unit puts a world of entertainment at your fingertips. The toaster-like top-loading DVD slot helps the set maintain its portrait-thin profile--just 2 inches thick without its table stand. A remote control simplifies operation from your desk or couch.

The AXN-7080's standard aspect ratio (4:3) matches most broadcast TV programs, and the set is cable-ready with a 181-channel NTSC tuner. (It's set up for VHF/UHF broadcast reception, too.) The set's picture is enhanced by its vivid (300:1) contrast ratio and luminous peak brightness of 300 candles per square meter.

LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life (with no risk of image burn-in), space savings, and light weight/easy positioning.

Connections include a standard composite-video input (switchable to work as a composite-video output for home use) with accompanying stereo RCA analog audio jacks--ideal for plugging in a video-game console or a camcorder when you're on the road. A stereo earphone jack affords private listening, and the monitor also offers built-in stereo speakers for desktop enjoyment.
