While Evesham’s 47-inch LCD TV may have a long list of niceties that would surely bring a smile to any HD addict’s face, the rather hefty pricetag might just scare a few folks away. Apparently making sure that its got the low and mid-range customers covered as well, Evesham is busting out a bevy of new displays at much lower price points. The Alqemi lineups boasts 32-, 37-, and 42-inch panels, with all five sporting WXGA resolutions, 8-millisecond response time, 500 cd/m2 brightness, 1000:1 contrast ratio (save for the bottom-end’s curiously high 1200:1 spec), and integrated stereo speakers. Evesham further segregates the models by offering a low-end 32-inch version (peep a pic after the jump) with the bare necessities (HDMI, component / S-Video / composite, VGA, and an analog tuner) for £499 ($970), while offering mid-range units with DVB-T / analog hybrid tuners (with Digital Tick support), and a 42-inch flagship (Alqemi SX; pictured after the break) that boasts PIP and Virtual Dolby surround sound. Evesham’s budget lineup tops at £1,399 ($2,718), with the mid-range units ranging from £599 ($1,164) to £899 ($1,747), and can be picked up now on the other side of the pond.

UK-based Evesham has released an HD-ready LCD TV at a budget price -- well, budget as far as LCD TVs go. The 20.1-inch V20KCDX-E03 LCD TV lists for £349.99 (about $650US) and features a 140 degree viewing angle, 300cd/m2 brightness, a contrast ratio of "up to" 600:1, and a respectable 8ms response time. Unfortunately, it's not the highest of high-defintion, with a resolution of 1680 x 1050, and it doesn't have HDMI, but it does have DVI, two SCART sockets, S-video, component, and composite video inputs. So if you were just thinking of using this as a monitor, it looks like you can save some money going for Dell's 2007WFP (or the older 2005FPW if you're scared of color banding issues).

Our favorite UK laptop rebadger is back with a new 12.1-inch member of their Quest series, called the A230, that offers dual-core technology for around $1,500. Featuring AMD's Turion 64 X2 processor, Evesham's A230 also comes with 1GB of RAM under the hood, integrated two-flavor WiFi, a built-in ExpressCard slot, X-Bright screen technology, and almost certainly, integrated graphics. British shoppers looking for an ultraportable around 4-pounds (that refers to the weight, not the price, wiseguy) can pick up their very own A230 immediately.
