LAS VEGAS– Bringing consumers the best in a viewing experience without limits, P&F USA introduces the new Philips 4000 LED series of Full HD televisions today at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Available in 40", 46" and 55" sized displays, this new line of ultra-thin LED televisions combines a brilliant picture with a host of features to give consumers a premium entertainment experience. With the high-powered Pixel Precise HD™ Engine, the viewer gets a crisp stunning picture packed in a sleek and energy efficient design.

"The 4000 series delivers on consumers' desire for amazing picture quality, great design and the ability to do more than just watch traditional television programming. The 4000 series gives the consumer the power to watch whatever they want," said Todd Richardson, senior vice president of sales and marketing for P&F, exclusive licensee for Philips consumer televisions and home theaters in North America. "With the integration of Philips MediaConnect and NetTV, consumers will have the ability to press one button and access a wealth of online content on their TV, including HD video."

Total Access – the Computer and TV as One Ultimate Entertainment Hub
Globally 70 percent of online consumers watched video over the Internet and many want that same experience on their television. Delivering on consumers' desire to wirelessly access their PC content without restrictions, P&F offers MediaConnect technology, the only solution on the market that delivers a simple, integrated solution allowing consumers to access all their PC content without boundaries. Unlike IPTV sets today that are limited to widgets, apps and/or selected sites, Philips MediaConnect allows for navigating anywhere on the internet. MediaConnect opens the world of PC navigation on the television without the need for physically cabling the PC to the TV. Anything and everything that can be seen on the computer can now be viewed wirelessly on the big screen. The sky is truly the limit for accessing PC content and surfing the web – if it can be accessed via the computer now consumers can access it on their televisions as well.

Total access is furthered by the addition of NetTV, which gives consumers the ability to press one button and wirelessly stream 15,000 movie options including HD content, directly to the TV. NetTV also allows consumers to access VUDU® - offering them another advantage with access to view online videos and photos through popular social sites such as Facebook® and Twitter®. VUDU also offers the most HD movies available to consumers. NetTV also opens up a variety of Video on Demand options including Netflix®, Blockbuster®, and FilmFresh, as well as information sites like news, weather, or music streaming via Pandora.

Pure Performance
The 4000 LED series has a powerful performance upgrade that includes a brilliant LED display, Pixel Precise HD processing and SRS TruSurround HD® sound all packed in an ultra thin display. Complemented with the addition of Philips MediaConnect for unlimited access to online content, the 4000 series delivers the ultimate home theater experience.

Simple Set-Up
Making the out-of-the-box experience effortless, Philips TVs offer a simply designed graphic interface menu that allows consumers to easily navigate the TV menu and add devices with ease.

Setting up an HDTV has never been easier thanks to the unique Settings Assistant feature. In a few easy steps, users can select their on-screen preferences with the left and right cursor buttons. By using a program similar to an eye test, viewers can select what they perceive as the best picture. Users choose initial preferences from the five split-screen samples, creating their ultimate personal picture quality and then television will make the changes and store them for future use.

Delivering a simple entertainment experience, the sets provide consumers an easy "how-to" sticker on the back panel walking consumers through the connection process. No more wondering where to connect the various wires from other components – it's as easy as following the outline.
