HP DreamScreen targets broadband connected TV and internet

September 18, 2009

HP has unveiled a flat monitor that aims to bring connected entertainment into every room in the house, allowing broadband internet customers to share content from the web from screen to screen.

People now can stay current with Facebook friends and photos, listen to Pandora Internet radio, share Snapfish personal photos and enjoy their music and pictures from home networked PCs with HP DreamScreen connected to a wireless or wired broadband network.

"Constant, always-on access to friends, information and entertainment is a common expectation today," said Satjiv S. Chahil, senior vice president, worldwide marketing, HP. "With HP DreamScreen, social media, web services and digital entertainment can be enjoyed in more areas of the home."

The HP DreamScreen 100 is 10.2 inches, designed to fit on a nightstand or dresser. The HP DreamScreen 130 (13.3 inches) is ideal for kitchen counters and coffee tables.

The HP DreamScreen comes with 2 gigabytes of built-in memory for storing photos, music and home movies directly on the device. Photos and music can be streamed wirelessly or moved to the HP DreamScreen by a simple drag and drop motion from a networked PC with included software.

In addition, the HP DreamScreen gives users access to HP SmartRadio, a new service that aggregates streams of live Internet broadcasts from more than 10,000 radio stations around the world.
