Today, Vizio announced three mobile TV versions: a 7”, a 9” and a 10”.  Each device is less than one inch thick and will sell between $149 and $229 later this year.  All feature a Razer LED screen that displays 800x480 resolution.

The two bigger sizes can access the new ATSC-M/H signals through an integrated antenna. The smallest, the 7”, can receive ATSC and NTSC broadcast signals or can be used in conjunction with a DVD player via the unit’s audio and video in ports.

“From our enormous base of enthusiastic customers, we see a solid set of end users ready to embrace the idea of viewing on the go, and these new mobile Razor LED TVs are the ideal solution,” says Laynie Newsome, VIZIO Co-Founder and VP Sales and Marketing Communications. “Being one of the first to market with the latest in mobile video technology is a perfect example of VIZIO’s ability to deliver the newest and most advanced technologies to the market, and these products have the performance and value that our customers have come to expect.”

We are still undecided if mobile TV will catch on in the US as it has in other parts of world.  If it does, Vizio is lined up perfect to take advantage just as they did with HDTVs.
