DisplayLink and I-O DATA DEVICE (www.iodata.com) today announced the availability of the I-O DATA USB-RGB3/D USB 3.0 to DVI display adapter. Incorporating the DisplayLink DL-3100 chip for connectivity and virtual graphics, it is the first USB 3.0 enabled display adapter to ship in Japan.
Featuring the robust DisplayLink 3.0 video comperession and support for resolutions up to 2048x1152, including 1080p, even the newest notebooks, netbooks and PCs can enjoy the benfits of multi-screen computing. And with the throughput of SuperSpeed USB 3.0, those monitors will display high-performance, full-screen HD video, 3D games, rich 2D grpahics and multi-channel audio.
Laptop Magazine's excitement for the Lenovo ThinkVision LT1421 using DisplayLink technology continued to show through as the reviewer took to YouTube in a video review.
Here's a basic list of the portable monitor's features:
14.1-inch display
1366 x 768 resolution and matte coating
Less than 0.5-inch-thick screen. Full dimensions are 13.2 x 8.6 x 0.85 inches
1.8 pounds; 2.4 pounds with cover
Windows and Mac compatible
Two big draws to Lenovo's monitor is the quickness and ease of setting up the portable device through a single USB port that also provides power using DisplayLink's technology (watch @2:35). And the second, is how well the device handles HD video -- the reviewer plays a fullscreen YouTube movie trailer at 720p (watch @4:50).

DisplayLink pioneered a new category with its video USB technology -- the portable monitor. The timing for easy-to-use USB monitors is ideal for the growing number of mobile workers, who can boost productivity and standout during presentations with additional screen real estate.
If you've been looking for the perfect portable monitor, Laptop Magazine has found a winner in the new DisplayLink-enabled Lenovo ThinkVision LT1421. Combining Lenovo's devotion to quality hardware and DisplayLink's powerful USB video technology, it's not hard to see why it grabbed the magazine's Editors' Choice Award.
"This year, we've seen a couple of vendors rise to the challenge by releasing portable USB monitors that can fit right in your notebook bag. Lenovo's 14-inch ThinkVision T1421 ($199) is clearly the best of these portable displays, with wide viewing angles, great image quality, and the ability to transfer power and data over a single USB connection."
The review also mentions two other portable monitors that use DisplayLink Technology:
The Toshiba USB Mobile LCD Monitor, an ultraportable 14" display with 1366 x 768 HD resolution, ideal for presentations and multitasking. Laptop Magazine reviewed it here.
and the Field Monitor Pro, a clamshell design with a 15.4" display and numeric keypad, targeted at mobile accountants. Laptop Magazine reviewed it here.

Loyd Case, reknowned journalist and tech enthusiast, has set up his testing lair with a variety of displays. Here's a link to his blog Improbable Insights.
While he isn't directly using DisplayLink technology, we couldn't help sharing with you the envious setup of a hardcore user.

Nanovision Mimo 7" USB Powered LCD Monitors Profiled on Hot Hardware
"DisplayLink support has been showing up in a growing collection of display products, such as monitors, projectors, docking stations, and adapters (such as DVI-to-USB adapters). One of the display types that DisplayLink folks have been talking about for a while now, are small, 7-inch LCD panels--similar in size and shape to a digital photo frame. Such a small-format display could potentially meet the needs of those who seek the extra screen real-estate, but who either can't afford to buy another full-sized monitor or perhaps don't have the room for one. These 7-inch displays could also be the perfect accessory for those who constantly monitor stock or news feeds, or for those who like to keep their IM clients or social-networking feeds close at hand, but not necessarily taking center stage.
We're still waiting for the DisplayLink-powered, small-format displays from Samsung and D-Link--both vendors have promised that their products are on the horizon; in the meantime, the first such displays to hit U.S. shores are from Nanovision in the form of the Mimo UM-710 and Mimo UM-740 displays. Both are LCDs with 7-inches of viewable area that can be set for either horizontal (portrait) or vertical (landscape) viewing. They both use DisplayLink technology to receive video signals from Windows or Mac systems via USB connections; and they both are also USB-bus powered as well, so they don't have power supplies that need to be plugged into wall sockets. They share a number of differences as well, most importantly, the UM-740 includes touch-screen support, while the UM-710 does not. "
