Dubai : A television with built-in Qur’an! LG Electronics has announced the Middle East-wide availability of the only TV in the world with built-in Qur’an, to honor the holy month of Ramadan. LG’s latest Time Machine plasma/LCD TV allows viewers to listen to the Qur’an, search and bookmark passages – all on the TV screen. The Holy Qur’an incorporated into the plasma/LCD TV includes all of the 114 surahs, allowing users to search for specific verse and bookmark up to 10 favorites with record and stop button on the remote control. The TV also allows viewers to listen to the Qur’an, an excellent feature for allowing several people to study and understand the scriptures together.
A multilingual interface allows viewers to navigate and read the text in Arabic and Farsi. At the top of the screen is a status bar that displays the name of the surah, verse numbers and the time of day. As a brand that respects Muslims, LG is committed to ensuring that we offer solutions that meet local needs, and the built-in Qur’an TV comes as a part of this effort,” said H.S. Paik, president of LG Electronics Gulf FZE. In addition to its special features for Ramadan, this TV also includes LG’s Time Machine technology, which allows viewers to pause and rewind live TV shows, and record shows for later viewing. The built in 160 GB hard drive is large enough to store 40 football matches or 30 full-length movies. LG’s Time Machine TV with the built-in Qur’an facility is available in LCD/PDP 37, 42 and 50-inch sizes.
