Buffalo FTD-W71 7-inch USB sub-display
Buffalo have become the latest firm to roll out a USB LCD sub-display. The 7-inch FTD-W71, like the Nanovision MIMO monitors and Century Japan display, is a compact desktop screen intended to give a little extra real-estate for IM windows, media players, Twitter clients and other often-glanced-at apps.
The design itself isn’t anything to write home about, while the 800 x 480 resolution and 500:1 contrast ratio won’t impress anybody, but hey - at least it offers you more visual real estate, right? All you need to do is manufacture certain your computer has an additional USB port and you’re good to go. While folks who spend plenty of day tied to a desktop
Brightness is a respectable 300cd/m2 and contrast 500:1; Buffalo claim viewing angles of 120-degrees vertical and 140-degrees horizontal. The FTD-W71 will go on sale in Japan in late January, price not yet announced.
