Westinghouse VK-40F580D 40-Inch LCD TV Tries Integrating A Front-Loading DVD Player

One way to stand out in the highly competitive HDTV market is to integrate a DVD player into a 40-inch display, and that's exactly what Westinghouse does with their latest model. The Westinghouse VK-40F580D is a 40-inch LCD display with a front-loading DVD slot, conveniently eliminating one box from your home theater setup. We've seen TV's integrated with DVD players before, but never in a 40-inch display with the latest LCD technologies. The VK-40F580D also boasts 1080p resolution and a "Spinedesign" which places all the connection ports on one side of the set for easy access. If you're hoping this Westinghouse will upscale standard-def DVD's though, you're out of luck because it won't and for the $1149 price tag, you'll probably pay less for a separate 40-inch LCD set and DVD player of higher quality.
