Toshiba has a monitor that is truly portable!

PA3923U-1LC3The Toshiba 14” USB-powered Mobile LCD Monitor is ideal for adding an additional screen to any Windows-based laptop at work, school or home. Featuring a 14-inch diagonal widescreen display with up to 1366x768 HD resolutions, it provides clear and crisp images as a laptop’s LCD. Weighing only 2.8 pounds and less than 1” thick, this ultra-portable monitor is designed to fit in most laptop bags. Both the monitor’s power and video are powered via USB, eliminating the need to carry an AC adapter or video cable.

The Toshiba Mobile Monitor allows business travelers and students to conduct on-the-spot presentations and share content without the need for a bulky projector or crowd around a laptop screen. It can also be used as an additional display in extended mode for serious on-the-go multitasking. The Mobile Monitor includes a protective black vinyl carrying case, which quickly folds into an adjustable stand that can be set to various viewing levels and also deftly houses the monitor’s included USB Y cable.
