  1. 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

  2. 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,
