iZ3D Offers $70 Discount on 3D Monitors for 30 Days

Company Apologizes for Website and Online Store Outage


SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - April 9, 2009) - iZ3D Inc., designer, developer and pioneer of advanced stereoscopic 3D visualization systems apologizes to its customers, fans, and other website visitors for the recent www.iZ3D.com website outage. During the outage, access to the company's 3D drivers, forums, support, and sister-site, www.3Drulez.com, remained available.

"I personally apologize to our customers and 3D fans. As a way of saying 'thanks for your loyalty and patience' iZ3D is offering an instant $70 discount with the coupon code 'website' for monitors purchased on our site http://www.iZ3D.com in the next 30 days," said Thomas Striegler, CEO iZ3D Inc.

Software incompatibilities with patches applied by the website's host crippled its ability to publish dynamically generated pages. The company has taken numerous actions to ensure that this type of outage does not happen again.

"iZ3D is committed to making the best 3D experience possible for its customers. As such, we've accelerated the development already underway of a completely new web experience with great opportunities for customers to begin the transition from 2D to 3D. We invite customers that have purchased iZ3D monitors to join in the final designs of the new site. To participate in the process, send your ideas and wish lists to web3D@iZ3D.com," commented David Chechelashvili, VP Marketing iZ3D.

This offer cannot be combined with any other iZ3D product coupons or promotional discounts. iZ3D brand monitors are top-of-the-line 2D monitors the entire family can use for everyday applications.
