iZ3D Monitors Adds Two More Regional Retailers

SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - April 30, 2009) - iZ3D Inc., designer, developer and pioneer of advanced stereoscopic 3D visualization systems, has further expanded its nationwide presence in brick and mortar stores. Altex Computers and Electronics (www.altex.com) is a popular regional chain in Texas and also offers online purchasing. The second new retailer is NCIX Computers (http://ncix.com/), a regional chain in British Columbia that also offers an online store.

"The clear advantage for iZ3D to be in brick and mortar stores is customers can experience the amazing difference between 2D and 3D gameplay. iZ3D places all the 3D technology in the monitor, so that users can wear iZ3D's inexpensive passive polarized glasses. The monitor features a 170-degree 3D viewing angle so the whole family can play together. iZ3D is compatible with over 99% of off-the-shelf games. Users can visit our website to see the ever increasing list of compatible games," stated David Chechelashvili, VP Marketing for iZ3D, Inc.

iZ3D is currently offering great rebates on its website to make buying a 3D monitor even more affordable. The new iZ3D "3D Bucks Rebate Center" provides a listing of all available rebates.

iZ3D brand monitors are both top-of-the-line 2D monitors the entire family can use for everyday applications and, with the push of a button and a pair of passive 3D-glasses, provides an immersive 3D gaming and entertainment experience for the home.
