Imagine a day when your notebook reminds you of meetings, plays MP3s and provides flight departure and gate information all while being powered down. No matter where you go, you can check for Wi-Fi connectivity, read the news, and plan your next move. You are informed, organized and prepared for anything.

Introducing Preface, a new technology from PortalPlayer that works with Windows Vista to enable a secondary LCD screen called Windows SideShow that displays data and pictures and runs other useful mini-applications that cater to your lifestyle. Since Preface is so power-efficient, it can run for hundreds of hours without draining your notebook battery providing Always On access to your data and multimedia content.

Even when your Preface-enabled notebook is powered down, you get:

• Relevant information at your fingertips.
• Intelligent organization with access to calendars, e-mails, addresses, travel itineraries, movie show times, alerts and more.
  
• The ability to play games, enjoy music, and share pictures.
  
• Longer battery life for improved productivity.
  
• A way to personalize your notebook, making it uniquely yours.

Preface is the first thing you see on your notebook, and provides a window to view you what you want, when you want it. It’s smart, powerful and organized. Revisit your day with a Preface-enabled PC.
