Las Vegas, NV, January 8, 2007 -- HANNspree California, Inc., a company renowned for its unique, high-quality design-centric consumer electronics products, will launch its first-ever line of advanced portable electronics products at CES 2007. The first three introductions in the company’s portable product family include two portable DVD players, the ultra-slim models UPD851VD (SRP: $170) and UP101VD (SRP: $230), with 8.5 and 10.2-inches LCD screens, respectively, as well as the model UP071VA (SRP: $120), a portable 12-volt display device featuring a high-performance 7-inch widescreen LCD screen that’s ideal for use in automobiles, boats and RVs. All three new HANNspree portable products are launched under the HANNS·G sub brand and will be available and demonstrated at the company’s CES Booth in the Capital Ballroom of the Renaissance Hotel, seconds from the South Hall entrance.

Noted HANNspree’s Vice President, Marketing and Product Planning Michael Amkreutz: “Since our founding in 2004, HANNspree has promised to bring our unique ‘design-centric’ approach to a wide variety of exciting CE products, in addition to our flat-panel LCD and plasma TVs. With the introduction of our first three portable products we are following through on that commitment. Our two new portable DVD players and our portable display offer users the high quality, advanced performance features and superior build materials that our customers have come to expect from HANNspree.”

Planes, Trains or Automobiles: Enjoy Superb DVD Viewing!
Sleek and modern-looking, HANNspree’s new portable products are combination of functionality, ergonomics and elegance. For example, both the company’s new portable DVD players feature advanced Wide Color Active Matrix TFT screens and support playback of all conventional video and audio formats, as well as WMA, MP3 and MPEG4. Both also feature USB Host interfaces, which let users play back files from other USB-compatible devices. With their 2Wx 2 built-in stereo speakers, digital audio output for 5.1-channel stereo, and Dolby Digital decoding, both devices ensure great sound quality, and 24-bit/96KHz Audio DACs and 10-bit/54MHz Video DACs further enhance both video and audio playback. Both are super-slim (just 1.3” deep for the UP101VD and 1.1” for the UP851D) and both feature a full complement of audio and video inputs for maximum on-the-go flexibility. In addition, both models feature a full two hours of playing time, as well as two headphone jacks for shared viewing enjoyment.

Most notably, the UP101VD’s display features a unique 180-degree swivel design that lets users enjoy the very best viewing angle no matter what position they are sitting in – and especially useful feature for tight quarter-viewing such as automobiles, planes, trains or buses. For maximum flexibility, both models also come with AC to DC power adapters, 12V car adapters, car seat mounting straps, and table-top stands.

Model UP071VA: Have Widescreen Display Will Travel!
HANNspree’s new UP071VA is a breakthrough in portable widescreen (16:9) image quality. The super elegant and slim 7-inch display can be connected to any DVD player, PC or VCD for unmatched picture quality. The screen boasts 480x234 WVGA+ resolution, with a brightness level of 250 cd/m2 and a 300:1 contrast ratio. A full complement of connectivity options includes A/V input, DC in, composite video, audio in and a headphone jack. Like HANNspree’s two new DVD players, the UP071VA includes AC to DC power adapter, 12V Car Adapter.
