In addition to the HDPD-SUT series durable hard drives, I-O Data rolled out the LCD-MF223FBR-T, a 21.5-inch touchscreen monitor for Windows 8 PCs. The monitor features an ergonomic stand, which lets you tilt it to make touch actions more comfortable. It features a 5-point multi-touch surface, letting you perform complex touch-based UI gestures. Its surface features an durable 8H glass surface, which is tested to withstand the drop of a 227 g iron ball from a height of 145 cm.

Purely as a monitor, the LCD-MF223FBR-T features a TN-film panel that provides 170°/160° (H/V) viewing angles, 1920 x 1080 pixels resolution, 1000:1 static contrast ratio with dynamic mega-contrast, 220 cd/m² maximum brightness, 5 ms response time, and a typical power draw of 18W. Display inputs include DVI, D-Sub, and HDMI. A USB 2.0 connection relays touch input. Accessories include 2W stereo in-built speakers. Measuring 516 × 132~324 x 384 mm (WxDxH), the display weighs 4.7 kg. It is slated for market release by the end of April.
