RedPost is now starting to sell LCD mounts designed and manufactured locally by MOR/ryde (check out their product line here), who builds several components we use, including our custom-designed Sign/Post. These are great mounts — rock solid, high quality, much better than a lot of the cheap crap coming out of China nowadays. Here’s a [...]
Sign/Kit options changes are coming soon, with:
more sizes: 22″, 32″, 37″, 42″ and 47″ (phew, so many!)
1080p in the 42″ and 47″ models (nice!)
lower prices (yay!)
built-in tuner and “invisible” speakers (handy!)
LG’s new line of pro-displays are lighter, brighter and Energy Star 3.0 and RoHS compliant (the old ones weren’t Energy Star anything).
The newest RedPost, a 32″ Sign/Kit, went live today at Goshen College’s Java Junction coffeeshop, a student run operation where business majors get hands on experience running an actual business:
Last night, on my way home from work, I took this photo. I’ve helpfully circled the kiosk where we have a RedPost installed:
Isaiah and I joined Dave Pottinger, who’s almost 80 and in much better shape than most 40yo’s, in rotating the kiosk so that the screen faces the street; before, it was facing the [...]
Do you like that 5 word 44 character name? It is a bit long. That aside, RedPost is in Indy today at the annual meeting of the Indiana Private Health Care Association. Don Yost (that’s him in the photo below) is heading up this initiative, based on his work at the Maple City Health Care [...]
If anyone’s interested in a RedPost-compatible LG 42″ LCD with a built-in computer for $1,750 (which includes the mount), let us know. We have access to a limited supply of these — the price just dropped $1,000 on them, apparently due to overstocking, and they’re going fast.
I took this photo last night as I was putting out “street closed” signs for First Fridays. It looks pretty cool! I can’t wait to get the actual content up and running on the display, it’ll look much better.
We’re testing out a nice, new high brightness 32″ sunlight-readable LCD on demo from Landmark Technology, Inc. Here’s a photo from the front of BetterWorld Books, the bookstore we’re located in here in Goshen:
The screen has a nice auto-dimming feature, so at night, it’s not glaringly bright. However, we still have a major glare issue [...]
I spent my morning at Courier’s Kendallville, Ind., book publishing plant, which they recently remodeled and expanded (they’re the largest employer in Kendallville, with Wal-Mart their only real competition). Pretty much at some time in your life you’ve bought or used a book or textbook printed by Courier. They’re huge.
As I mentioned, they remodeled their [...]
We just installed this afternoon a 32″ Sign/Kit in Goshen College’s Admissions waiting area. They’ll be using their digital sign to give visitors to campus an initial look at the faces and places around campus, as well as a sense of the mission and values of the college (what corporate-type-folks call branding). Check it out:
