iPod, iPhone and iPad docks are dime a dozen, but how many of your computers can actually feature a full-fledged docking system
that caters for Apple’s range of iOS-powered devices? AOC enters the
fray just in time for CES 2012, unveiling the AOC Aire Monitor with
Docking Station. Touted to be the ultimate monitor for iPod and iPhone
owners, it will offer a 23” Full High Definition monitor that boasts an
integrated universal docking station for the iPhone and iPod which will
pave the way for immediate video, audio and photo playback.
Using AOC’s patented plug-and-play technology, the integrated dock
coupled with the base of the monitor will also boast built-in speakers
with high quality SRS Premium Sound. Also known as the e2343Fi if you
are a sucker for model numbers, the AOC Aire Monitor with Docking
Station can be yours for $279.99 a pop from March onwards. If you happen
to be headed towards CES next week, the AOC Aire Monitor with Docking
Station is on display at the Bellagio, Monet 3 Ballroom.
Robert Velez, Marketing Manager of AOC, says, “The Aire Monitor with
Docking Station is the ideal multimedia solution for iPhone and iPod
users who want to watch movies or browse photos on a 23-inch high
definition flat screen directly from their mobile device. The monitor
displays photos and video content on a screen that is 37 times larger
than the iPhone that it comes from.”
Other hardware specifications of the AOC Aire Monitor include
50,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, a 5ms response time, 250 cd/m² of
typical brightness, a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080@60Hz, HDMI digital
input, and 10-watts integrated speakers. I guess this beats hooking up
your iPhone or iPod to a projector, and the monitor itself can also be
used for other computing purposes whenever you are not docking any
iDevice within. Pretty neat, don’t you think so?
