  2. Leather on a TV Lift

    Notting Hill TV Lift Cabinet

    While ImportAdvantage prides itself on its commitment to the quality hardwood craftsmanship found on most of its TV lift cabinets, we are also committed to providing the best choices in the TV lift industry for our customers. This is why we have created a TV lift cabinet that is finished in fine Swedish leather.

    Both the Notting Hill TV Lift Cabinet and the Notting Hill XS TV Lift Cabinet are wrapped on all five sides in hand-cut, beautifully upholstered Swedish Leather. In both models, you can choose any one of four shades of leather for your foot of the bed TV lift cabinet – brown, black, tan or bone.

    These leather-covered TV lift cabinets still include a pre-installed, ultra-quiet TV lift mechanism and built-in Infrared Relay System, allowing you complete control of your TV and media players. And they are perfect for small spaces, at the foot of your bed, the center of a room or against any wall in your home. The only thing that makes them different is the application of beautiful Swedish

  3. The ‘Techiest’ of TV Remotes: The iPad/iPhone

    Welcome to the new era of channel-surfing! Two weeks ago, Comcast released its new Xfinity TV app for the iPhone and iPad, which acts as a remote control and TV guide for most Comcast-compatible TV boxes. The free app connects to your DVR or cable set-top boxes, and after logging in, you can manage each DVR unit or cable box you own. Then, after entering your zip code and choosing your channel offerings, the app loads on your mobile device an interactive, searchable TV guide, from which you can select the show you want to watch and your TV will either change to that channel or your DVR will set to record it.

    The remarkable difference between Comcast’s Xfinity TV app and a traditional remote control is that you don’t have to be in the same room as your TV to control it. Since the iPhone and iPad connect to the Internet, you can be sipping coffee at a café with your friends (or standing in line buying Christmas presents) while setting up to record the season premiere of your favorite show.

  5. Hottest TV for Black Friday: VIZIO XVT3SV Series TV

    Vizio TV

    Happy Black Friday!

    Landing on Mashable’s list of Top 10 holiday gifts for 2010, the VIZIO XVT3SV Series TV is expected to be one of the, if not “the,” hottest-selling TVs this year because of its value and high-tech features.

    An incredible, mercury-free and energy-efficient display that includes TruLED backlighting, which has the ability to brighten and dim the TV image independently across the entire screen, not just along the edges, the VIZIO XVT3SV’s 1080p full HD video display is available in 42-inch, 47-inch and 55-inch models. Exceeding the new ENERGY STAR 4.1 Guidelines, the VIZIO XVT3SV will also not drop the bottom out of your energy bill every month.

    With its super-sharp 10,000,000-to-1 contrast ratios and 240Hz SPS Refresh Rate, it can project more accurate black and white levels than nearly any other competitor in its price range. But what really sets this unit apart is the accessibility to Vizeo’s Internet Apps and ability to stream media services like Amazon Video On Demand,

  6. Product Focus: Soho Fireplace (Happy Thanksgiving!)

    Soho Fireplace TV Lift

    Right now hopefully everyone is enjoying a tasty Thanksgiving meal with friends and family, only to enjoy the post-meal nap or football game. But wouldn’t it be great to watch the game while cozying up to a warm fireplace at the same time? This dream can come true with the Soho Fireplace and TV lift by ImportAdvantage. Both a handcrafted TV lift cabinet and a working 33” electric fireplace, the Soho Fireplace is a true work of inspiration and a perfect fit for a winter’s day.

    Both the fireplace and TV lift cabinet come with a remote control, so you won’t need to leave the couch to warm your hands or channel surf to your favorite show. The Soho Fireplace also features two neatly concealed doors that open to shelves for storing your media players.

    The handcrafted Poplar cabinet comes in either an Espresso or Caramel finish (your choice), and the TV is fully protected from the fireplace’s heat because of a full partition wall that blocks high temperatures. The fireplace can also be used with

  7. Kinect Sales Top 1 Million Units in 10 Days!

    Kinect

    Microsoft’s Kinect, an extension for Xbox 360 gaming consoles that brings games to life by body movement, needing no controllers, wires or gadgets, just announced that it has sold more than one million units during the first 10 days of its release. This absolutely blows away its competition, the Sony Move for PlayStation3, which hasn’t sold a million units yet, and it has been on the market since September.

    So what makes the Kinect such a hot commodity? It may have something to its futuristic capabilities to translate one’s body movements, even the sound of your voice, into digital movements. Want to drive a race car? Just grab an imaginary steering wheel and go for it. It’s the new wave of full body gaming, and it may charge in a new era of integrating gaming consoles into a majority of people’s households.

    Of course, some of the Kinect’s fandom may be due to Oprah publicly embracing it on her show in October. Oprah, along with a few of her audience members, danced away to the Dance Central

  8. Finished on Four Sides, Foot of the Bed TV Lifts

    Who doesn’t like to save a little money and space when shopping for quality home furnishings? At ImportAdvantage, we understand that a little value for your dollar goes a long way, so that’s why we have been designing and building an extensive line of foot of the bed TV lift cabinets since day one. These pop-up TV cabinets have all the features of our traditionally-sized TV lifts but are compact enough to be used in the bedroom, small offices or anywhere you might be limited on space.

    With our foot of the bed TV lift cabinets, you get a handcrafted TV lift that is finished on all four sides. What this does is make it one of the most versatile pieces of furniture in your home. In fact, the foot of the bed TV lift cabinet is like three different pieces of furniture in one – you can use it at the foot of the bed, as a room divider (just reverse the component drawers so they open from the front), or use the TV lift against any wall in your home. The possibilities are nearly endless.

  9. 3D TVs on Everyone’s Holiday Wishlist

    Likely to be the hottest TV gift this holiday season, 3D TVs are steadily rising in popularity and in technological capabilities. Couple that with a steady drop in prices, what more could customers ask for?

    As the media entertainment envelope continues to be pushed, moving from HD to Blu-ray and now 3D, the movie industry will continue to play to the highest bidder, and right now that’s the 3D niche. In 2010, there were 25 3D movies released in theaters, and all of those, of course, were or will be released in 3D DVD versions. In 2011, the number of 3D movies is expected to top 30.

    And by now everyone has heard that Lucasfilm Ltd. will be rereleasing the entire Star Wars saga in 3D, which will of course be followed by 3D DVDs. In Europe, Sky 3D is the world’s first full-time 3D TV station, which brings sports, movies and entertainment to its customers in 3D 100 percent of the time.

    Many of the 3D TV holiday specials this year will feature TV kits that include free 3D-viewing glasses (required
