Pink is still in for this LCD monitor and TV

Next to black and silver, pink may well be color of choice for consumer technologies--regardless of what we have to say about it. So we're somewhat surprised that we haven't seen more products like this one come to mass market.

Tatung's new 17-inch LCD monitor doubles as an HD-ready TV with 1280x1024 resolution and a 140-degree viewing angle--specs that aren't earth-shaking but not bad for the $248 price. Chip Chick, however, points out the most notable distinction for this soft-pink monitor: It doesn't have a single Hello Kitty logo on it.
