[Gadgets] Hi-Tech TV at the Kitchen

My mom loves watching those telenovelas (TV soap shows) being shown on ABS-CBN. She watches them all time, although she had to contend with (1) the kitchen chores, and with five males in the house, kitchen chores can be a mountain pile; (2) five males who would either want to watch anime or movies; (3) or me who wants to watch the news or play PS2 or GameCube. But having invested in three TVs (back in the late 90s, though the latest one was a hands-me-down by an uncle), numbers 2 and 3 are no longer in contention. It is the first that competes with her TV time.

If there's one thing that I would get for my mom (and if I have the money, of course), this would be it:



It features

an 8.5-inch widescreen LCD display and can play audio and video from an iPod, DVD, (S)VCD, MP3-CD, CD(RW) and Picture CD. The system also offers a built-in ATSC/NTSC TV tuner, digital AM/FM tuner, two 2-inch speakers, cooking timer and clock, and wireless remote.

With the features like that, I might end up using it, and relegate the old TV to the kitchen, he he.
