I’m
sure you all agree these new features are simply fantastic! The joint
venture between LCDC and Matrix Orbital has turned out yet another golden
egg. After talking with Henry I was let in on the little secret; seeing
as I’m not very good at keeping them, here it is. It seems that
up until this point, all past owners of Matrix Orbital displays have
been a part of one giant beta test. That’s right the MX212 will
be leaving its brothers and sisters, the MX4, MX5 and MX6 behind as
it’s destined for the coveted retail shelves! Soon this package
will be available at your local Best Buy, CompUSA and many others. In
a way, many of us will be disappointed to see this move as it means
it’s not long until these displays will be found in every computer
in every household; though I’m sure this would make Henry and
Matt two very happy campers. The release date of the newly designed
MX212 is July 1st 2003. The quantities will be limited in the US at
first as most of the product will be heading over to Europe. That means
plenty of time to start saving now, this will be one purchase that’s
sure to not disappoint.
**update**
It seems we’re all in luck! Henry has decided to offer official
MX accessories! Keep your eyes peeled for:
•
DS18S20
Temp probes
• Internal USB Cables
• 3.5” Drive bay GPO kit that plugs directly into all the
MX series models and makes easy use of the low power GPO’s with
ultra blue LEDs.
• Much more to come…
