Television is a pretty remarkable technology. We don’t often think about what it really takes to make it happen. There are countless numbers of people who make their living by being part of the expansive chain of processes required to bring TV to you. However, one group rises above all others as the true heroes of the field:
The tiny people that live in your TV.
When’s the last time you thanked them, anyway? Sure, they’re really good at staying in character and pretending not to hear you, but they do. Think of how dedicated they are to that job. Just sitting around, waiting for you to turn on your TV, then quickly doing costume and scene changes as you flip the channels. They spend their whole lives in those cramped boxes, waiting to serve you. And if you have a portable TV? Forget about it! You thought a flatscreen was cramped? Just wait until you’re smushed into something the size of a wallet.
If you’re thinking of getting a portable TV, and would like to make things a little easier for the lilliputians inside it, get yourself the NT-401 Portable Widescreen LCD TV. It’s got a nice, high resolution screen, which also happens to be in widescreen format. Not something you see on too many portable TVs, and the additional elbow room will definitely be appreciated by the miniature actors. It can receive Digital ATSC broadcasts with its telescoping antenna, and can also play media from its SD/MMC slot. You can even let the little people chill in their pajamas by taking advantage of the FM radio! It’s also got a rechargeable Lithium battery, so you won’t have to pay for new ones all the time.
Get yourself a Portable Widescreen LCD TV, and thank the hardest working little guys in the biz.
