The Internet, For Free….

Email, Instant Messaging, shopping, train times, e-bay and everything else the Internet has to offer. Fast, mobile and with no contracts the unit also features inbuilt GPS mapping!

The Pocketsurfer 2 by Linsar is a revolutionary device that harnesses all the power of the World Wide Web and delivers it into the palm of your hand. The product is the brainchild of Canadian company Datawind who have selected Linsar as their brand partner.

As its name suggests, the Pocketsurfer 2 is pocket sized and has a ‘clamshell’ type design that opens to reveal a widescreen display and backlit QWERTY keypad, mouse pointer and various shortcut keys. Connection to the internet takes seconds before you are presented with the Linsar navigation page, an intuitive portal to all the best bits of the Web.

The products’ built in GPRS modem ensures connection is possible in virtually all locations and with 1200 minutes free airtime each month for the first year (second year costs only £39.95), the Pocketsurfer 2 is simple and economical to use.

With a retail price of only £179.99, the Pocketsurfer 2 has attracted significant interest and will become one of the keystone products in the emerging ‘mobile internet’ market.

A comprehensive range of Linsar accessories will also be available following the Pocketsurfer 2 launch which takes place at the Canadian Embassy in London on Thursday 12th July.

A New Name in Consumer Electronics with a Unique Vision…

With 30 years combined experience in the consumer electronics industry it has long been the desire of Linsar Directors Terry Reed and Barry Kick to create a unique buying proposition without the constraints of a large corporation.

Once an exclusive product that commanded premium retail prices, developments in technology and manufacturing, introduction of large multiples, product normalisation and increased consumer awareness has lead to the consumer electronics sector becoming a highly price sensitive market. Linsar are fully aware of the challenges faced by retailers and have designed their business to face these challenges head on.

Linsar began its journey on the 1st February 2006. The company’s ultimate goal is to provide quality products and unbeatable service, accompanied by highly competitive prices. As an added benefit, the Linsar brand will only be available to small multiples, commercial contractors and to independent retailers through well established wholesalers. By selecting not to offer the Linsar brand in large multiple retail outlets, we can offer a degree of exclusivity to the independent sector not available from any other brand.

Linsar’s exciting launch range is complete with Freeview on every model with all products 26” and above HD ready. Available direct from the factory, the range covers all screen sizes from 15” to 50” while the key screen sizes (23”/26”/32”) are available from stock. The products are stylish, highly desirable and deliver both good retail margins and good value to the consumer. Every product comes with 12 months warranty with direct to consumer replacement as part of an industry leading service package.

As a dynamic and fast growing company, Linsar are constantly implementing new ideas and solutions for their customers while adding to the already successful product range. The next few months certainly promise to be an exciting time with new models on the way including a highly competitive 15” LCD model with Freeview...
