Waterproof LCD for outdoor viewing

Summer will be here in a flash, and we'll be forced to abandon the comfortable confines of our favorite TV-viewing lounge chair. But that doesn't mean we'll have to stop watching.

Frontgate's "SunBriteTV" doesn't just have a bright LCD screen that can be seen in daylight, but it also is outfitted to protect against the elements with an "all-weather enclosure safeguarded from rain, dirt, insects and scratches." Even its cable ports and remote are watertight and dust-resistant.

This Terminator of television sets, which can withstand temperatures ranging from minus-24 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit, comes in two sizes: 32 inches for $4,000 and 23 inches for $2,500. Now we just need to figure out how to mount it in the Cooper limo's whirlpool.
