Tri-Vision's V-gis(tm) V-chip Decoders Available for Sale
Nationally on Major U.S. Television Shopping Channel
Tri-Vision International Ltd./Ltee is pleased to announce that it
will sell its V-gis(tm) v-chip decoders nationally via major U.S.
television shopping channel QVC on Wednesday, October 21 at 4
p.m. eastern time.
The V-gis(tm) decoder helps parents choose what television
programs do and do not come into their homes and is also
available at Sam's Clubs, H.H. Gregg's and Toys R Us stores
nationwide. It can block out violent and inappropriate programming.
"QVC serves as an additional retailer for us and one which
precisely delivers our core target audience of moms ages 25 to
45,'' said Todd Grunberg, Vice President of Marketing and
Business Development for Tri-Vision. "For those customers who
want a bargain on a v-chip decoder, I would suggest they call QVC
on Wednesday, October 21 at 4 p.m."
The Tri-Vision segment on QVC will be highlighted by the live
appearance of the award winning Canadian v-chip inventor, Tim
Collings. Collings invented the v-chip after the massacre of 14
female Canadian engineering students. He will display the v-chip,
V-gis(tm) software and demonstrate how it easily blocks programs
with excessive violence, sex, dialogue and language.
Tri-Vision International Ltd./Ltee is a public company founded in
1986 and trades on Canada's Toronto Stock Exchange under the
symbol TVL.
Tri-Vision Electronics Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Tri-Vision International Ltd./Ltee, holds the exclusive global
rights to the proprietary v-chip technology developed by
