| Dear Valued Customers of Elite Screens,
I hope all of you have truly had a wonderful holiday season and New Year. Last week's CES Show in Las Vegas was a fantastic way to kick off 07'. The show was a great success for us and I really hope that all of you who attended or exhibited had the same positive effects as we did. Walking the different halls of the various convention centers provided a glance into the endless possibilities and the staggering economic might of the Audio/Video industry. As Elite Screens grows, so should our product line. We have already entrenched ourselves with the online and retail channels as a reliable maker of quality commercial grade and home theater product. Now is the time to launch into the custom installation channels. Elite Screens will be producing a high end series of screens, mounts, furniture and speaker systems strictly for the custom install market. We already have the quality control, resources and manpower to easily facilitate this but have only been waiting for wides pread product recognition before taking this step. We are excited about our relationships with the many veterans in the custom install industry who have contributed their invaluable insight so that we can produce a top-tier product for even the most discriminating consumer. The many custom installers and integrators who visited our display were as excited about the profit margin opportunities we offer as we were about the ideas for new product that will be appearing in great quantity this year. Since the retail and .com markets are exploding, we also released a whole new product line of screens mounts and furniture as well. Every effort has been made to provide you and your customers with a well made product at a competitive price. Please continue reading for the specifics on our new items. May you all have a safe, prosperous and enjoyable new year.

CES also marked the debut of many new
items:

The new Spectrum series of motorized
screen will likely prove to be our hottest selling
retail/.com item in 2007. This electric screen
comes in a white case and a (4:3) aspect ratio
for the commercial/office demographic while the
home theater models have a black casing and (16:9)
format. The material is matte white (1.1 gain)
with a built in IR receiver and 12V trigger. A
hardwire 3-way wall box is included along with
an IR remote and extended "Eye" receiver for recessed
ceiling installations. After market accessories
such as IR and Universal Learning Remotes are
also available.

The SilverFrame is our newest
edition to our line of fixed frame screens. They
have an aesthetically pleasing brushed metal frame
with inner black matte and provide the consumer
with the choice of 1.1 gain tension white, 1.0
gain tension gray and 1.8 gain high gain white
material to suit whatever media room requirements
that the consumer has. The screen is made with
the same quality material used in our premium
grade product and has the luxury of easy assembly
and adjustable tension.

The VMAX series just got a new face with the
introduction of the VMAX2 or
V2 enhanced version of the VMAX
screen. These next generation models are still
available in 1.1, 4.3 and 16.9 aspect ratios with
a broad range of sizes as well as the SILVERMAX
gray-screen variants but the new features package
definitely takes it up a notch from its predecessor.
Each unit has an internally mounted IR and RF
receiver along with a 12V trigger. The additional
18" of top border will still be available on specified
models but repeated consumer input that the extra
material was superfluous along with a general
reluctance to re-adjust the vertical limit after
purchase compelled us to remove it as a standard
feature. A Universal Learning Remote will replace
the standard IR remote which accompanies the RF
remote control, 3-way wall box and electric "Eye"
receiver that come included with the screen. Now,
the consumer has the power to choose having either
a hard wire control connection or a stream lined
wall or ceiling installed unit.

The new Elysium media room comfort
system is truly the best-designed home entertainment
sofa on the market today. The Elysium has a curved
forum configuration which provides a superior
viewing angle over in-line seating and the entire
set is upholstered in 100% leather with your choice
of black or dark brown. Fold down armrests provide
additional space for refreshments and transform
the Elysium into a central loveseat with matching
ottoman containing internal storage space and
flanking power recliners. A hidden floor-level
sliding compartment preserves the orderly appearance
of your media room by providing an easy-access
sliding storage solution for additional media
players, game systems and software right below
the loveseat. This innovative feature for keeping
the media room floor space clutter-free is what
made this model a "must have" for all of the furniture
specialists that inspected it at the show. The
overall design provides comfortable ergonomic
seating positions for all of its occupants without
interfering with audio/video enjoyment. The ottoman
gives comfortable leg support to those on the
loveseat while the power recliners allow variable
height settings with a flush drop allowing close
positioning to walls, surround-sound speakers
or other room furnishings.

Our new line of Cantilever Mounts
provide an attractive, safe and dynamic alternative
to conventional wall mounting. Our Cantilever
mounts come in small, medium and large models
that accompany flat panel displays from 22"-63"
weighing from 80-200 lbs. and are VESA compliant
from 100 x100 to 400 x 400 configurations. Standard
features of this product line are 10?/-5? vertical
tilt and its swing arm design allows up to 180?
lateral rotation to maximize panel visibility
with variable panel rotation which allows landscape
or portrait presentations. Additional features
include easy to use lift & lock mounting, integrated
cable management, all steel body construction
and they are available with black or silver powder
coat finishes.
