Compro Technology Appoints Leapfrog Distribution as South East Asia Distributor
Brings Compro Award Winning Products to Major ASEAN Markets
Taipei , Taiwan . December 4, 2003 - Compro Technology, a leading manufacturer of PCI TV tuner cards and USB2.0 TV boxes, announced the appointment of LeapfrogAsia Distribution as Compro's exclusive distributor in Singapore , Malaysia , Thailand , Vietnam , and Indonesia . In combination with existing distributors, the Compro product line is now available throughout the ASEAN territory.
Since its inception in 1999, LeapfrogAsia Distribution has focused on PC Audio and Home Audio distribution and has distributed products from Altec Lansing and Sonic Gear.
"We are pleased to work with a distributor with such in-depth knowledge of audio-visual products," said Mike Lo, General Manager of Compro Technology. "The combination of their strong business and technical skills will be key to their success in such a large and diverse sales territory."
"We are very pleased to enter into an agreement with Compro Technology which we regard as one of the leading technology companies with outstanding PC products. Compro pushes the limits of these product categories to new price-performance heights," said George Foo, Group CEO of Leapfrog Asia. "One of the most innovative and useful features of the VideoMate TV Gold Plus and VideoMate TV Gold is the Power Up Scheduling feature. Users can easily set their TV cards to record multiple programs and then turn off their PC. VideoMate TV Gold Plus and VideoMate TV Gold will then turn on your PC automatically at the scheduled time, record the TV program and then turn off the PC without any user intervention. Say you want to watch Real Madrid vs Valencia but are not prepared to wake up at 3:30 AM local time, then VideoMate's Power Up Scheduling will become in very handy," he added.
LeapfrogAsia Distribution hosted a product seminar and press conference at the Hotel Armada Kuala Lumpur on November 20, to introduce the major benefits and exclusive features the Compro product line to their sub-distributors and retailers. During the news conference, editors from Malaysia and Singapore were impressed by the picture quality and Power Up Scheduling feature that Compro provided. "I'd already reviewed some TV tuner cards from other manufacturers," said Sang Chong Lee, editor of Nanyang Online, "but no one can provide crystal-clear picture quality like Compro does."
