KiSS launches: Three new DVD players with WLAN (17/12/2003)

KiSS Technology presents at CES 2004 three new DVD players - DP-1500, DP-1504 and DP-1508, which provide a wireless connection to both the Internet and hard disk, with an elegant design. The new machines make it easier to download and view films directly from the Internet and to store films and pictures on the hard disk. All are compatible to DivX 4, 5 and 3.11.

The three new players from KiSS take up no more space than a telephone book. The elegant design and the discreet blue lighting of the buttons signal style and cutting-edge technology. With the wireless network connection, it is no longer necessary to lay cables in the home to transfer films and pictures from the PC to the DVD player.

The network connection also makes it possible to hook up to the Internet directly from the DVD players, to gain access to the enormous selection of Internet radio stations. With the KiSS players, the user already has access to more than 3,000 Internet radio stations. KiSS Technology has simultaneously developed a video-on-demand solution that makes it possible to offer rental and viewing of films on the DVD player direct from the Internet via an ordinary broadband connection.

DP-1500 is a refinement of KiSS Technology's award-winning DP-500, now in a new design and with wireless network connection. DP-1504 and 1508 are also equipped with 40 GB HD and 80 GB HD, respectively. All players support the following formats: DVD, MPEG-4, DivX (4, 5 and 3.11), XviD, CD/MP3, Ogg Vorbis, CD-RW, DVD-RW and JPEG.

DP-1500 and DP-1504 are expected to be on sale in Europe from January 2004. DP-1508 is expected to arrive during the first quarter of 2004. Recommended sales prices start at Euro 349.
