Toshiba Unveils Portable Monitor For Windows PCs

Toshiba has introduced a 14-inch portable LCD monitor that runs off a USB port.

The Mobile Monitor, released Tuesday, has a resolution of 1366 x 768 and weighs 2.8 pounds. The display uses the same LCD panel as a Toshiba laptop, and only works with PCs running Windows 7, Vista, and XP.

Businesspeople can use the new product for giving presentations during sales calls or meetings. The display can also be placed on extended mode for adding screen real estate to a laptop.

"The Mobile Monitor allows traveling businesspeople and students to conduct on-the-spot presentations and share content without the need for a bulky projector or having to crowd around a laptop screen," Paul Collas, director of accessory marketing at Toshiba America, said in a statement.
