Village Tronic, one of the pioneers of multi-display solutions, has launched a new member of its ViBook family of display extenders that provide computer users with a simple way to run several displays from a Windows or Mac computer or laptop. The ViBook Plus is one of the first devices to use DisplayLink’s new DL195 chip enabling it to support higher resolution screens of up to 1920x1200 and up to 28” with faster graphics and improved video playback that includes HD video streams.
“Our original ViBook is perfect for emails, word processing, web browsing etc,” explained Ascanio Orlandini, Village Tronic’s CTO, “but it is stretched when it comes to fast moving videos and high resolution. For this, and for people who want larger monitors, the ViBook Plus is now the perfect solution for increasing their desktop work area up to 1920x1200 with the unparalleled simplicity of DisplayLink USB graphics, for more fun and more efficiency as there is more to see all at once.”

Andre Bouwer, Head of Worldwide Sales, DisplayLink, added, “DisplayLink is excited to be able to support Village Tronic in being one of the first companies to bring a first class product to market based on our latest chip.”

The new ViBook Plus USB display extender costs €129 in Europe, which includes VAT and free shipping to mainland Europe if ordered from the website www.vibook.it In USA and Canada, the ViBook Plus costs US$129 from the website linked at http://www.villagetronic.com/vibook/buynow.html.

The ViBook Plus enables additional displays to be added to desktops and laptops very easily using the universal USB port, available in any PC or laptop, to provide a low cost and easy-to-use way to increase work screen area and productivity. It is supplied with the Village Tronic multi-screen software that makes it easy to arrange programs on the screens exactly how the user wants them to improve their efficiency. For example, one or two programs can be dedicated to each screen so that they are always viable or a spreadsheet can be run seamlessly across all the displays. Everything the user needs to work effectively can be always on display to multi-task without the delay of having to scroll or open and close panes, which really improves productivity for very little cost.
