Shuttle’s new XP17 at Computex Taipei

Shuttle displayed its new 17-inch LCD monitor, the XP17, at Computex Taipei, 2004. The company expects to ship small volumes of the product next month, said Ken Huang, vice president of Shuttle’s product management department, at the event on June 4.

The monitor, priced at US$600, features a 16ms response time and a screen resolution of 1,280×1,024 pixels and comes in a choice of white, black and silver. Additional features include a portable handle on top, height-adjustable back-support, 90-degree reversible screen and an optional carrying case, the XP-2-Go.

Although BenQ, ViewSonic and Samsung Electronics have all introduced 17-inch LCD monitors with a 12ms response time, Shuttle is confident about finding a niche market for the monitor based on its design, Huang explained.

The introduction of the XP17 marks the motherboard maker’s entrance into the display industry. The product will be sold mainly to matured markets such as Japan, Europe and the US, Huang said. Shuttle also presented its latest small form factor XPCs, XPC accessories and motherboards at the Computex Taipei 2004.

The model was also showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January and the CeBIT show in Hannover, Germany in March.
