Panasonic Debuts Multimedia Audio System Photo Frame

SECAUCUS, N.J., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Panasonic today announced
the debut of its first audio system with iPod dock and photo frame. The MW-10
combines several components into one sleek system, making it the ultimate
multimedia solution for den, office, bedroom, dorm room or living room.

Sporting an elegant silhouette, the MW-10 sounds as good as it looks. It
pumps out audiophile-quality sound from its built-in CD player, and its FM/AM
radio tuner has 45-station (30-FM/15-AM) Preset Memory. The speaker is
constructed with rigid, low-density bamboo cones to achieve pure sound and
crisp dialogue. Special diffusers installed in front of the speaker units
disperse sound over a wide listening area. For robust bass sounds, the D.Bass
function enhances bass in conjunction with the volume level.

The Universal Dock for iPod* plays music and video downloads. The MW-10 even
has an included remote control which makes it easy to operate the iPod from a
distance.

Boasting a 9-inch WVGA LCD, the MW-10 can display photos from a CD, SD Memory
Card and internal memory. The 4 GB of internal memory stores image data for
up to 6,000** photos and provides hours of viewing and listening enjoyment.
With the CD playing background music, it can display a photo slideshow. In
addition to a full-screen photo slideshow, the advanced display offers a
versatile combination of screen options: clock and iPod track menu, calendar
and photos, clock and photos, and audio and calendar.

An SD Memory Card slot and USB connectivity offer easy transfer of data from a
PC or CD-R/RW. The MW-10 is Energy Star® qualified, and its UniPhier® LSI
integrates all video signal processing circuits onto a single chip, which
lowers power consumption and reduces the number of components.

Panasonic's MW-10 will be available in December 2009 with a suggested retail
price of $299.95.
