Sydney, Australia – 04 November 2011 – Lenovo today announced the industry’s first widescreen USB monitor, the ThinkVision LT1421. Designed for uncompromised portability and productivity on the go, the ThinkVision LT1421 has a lightweight and slim design, with a 14” LED screen and one USB cable for plug-and-play connection.

The ThinkVision LT1421 is designed to help mobile professionals share information quickly and easily while on-the-go, as well as providing additional screen real-estate to increase overall productivity. The ThinkVision LT1421 is the ideal second-screen solution for mobile professionals requiring the use of multiple windows at once. Weighing only 835g, and starting at 9.33mm thin, the LT1421 can easily be carried along with a notebook in a carry case. The USB screen is compatible with any Windows based PC including notebooks, desktops, workstations and servers. It also comes with a hard case to protect the screen when in transit.

The ThinkVision LT1421 is also an environmentally friendly solution; with the product’s power consumption at 69 percent better than the ENERGY STAR standard. The LT1421 is also mercury free, is made from 65 percent recycled plastic (PCC), and has achieved EPEAT Gold and ULE Gold ratings. The LT1421 can be powered by the user’s PC battery via the USB 2.0 cable. As long as the PC has power the USB display will continue operating.

The ThinkVision LT1421 is designed for user comfort and flexibility, with 12 to 40 degree tilt for different screen angles, 16-level brightness, so the monitor can be used in various environments, and rubber feet to prevent slipping.

The ThinkVision LT1421 is tested to the same rigorous standards as ThinkPad laptops to ensure the highest levels of reliability and dependability. It is also designed with innovative features, such as automatic resolution detection and display mode setup, to provide enhanced ease-of-use for customers on-the-go.
