Exhibit 99.1

Syntax-Brillian Corporation Announces Delay of Fiscal Second Quarter 2008 Earnings and Provides Preliminary Fiscal Second Quarter 2008 Update and an Inventory Repurchase

TEMPE, Ariz., February 11, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Syntax-Brillian Corporation (Nasdaq: BRLC) today announced that the company needs additional time to complete its financial statements for its second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007. The company needs additional time in order to evaluate its accounting treatment related to its tooling deposits. As a result, Syntax-Brillian will not release its fiscal second quarter 2008 results on February 11th, as previously anticipated. At this time, no date has been set for the second quarter release.

Preliminary Fiscal Second Quarter 2008 Update and an Inventory Repurchase

The company recently received indications that due to a delay in the build out of the 2008 Beijing Olympic facilities, a large number of LCD TVs already sold through the company’s distributors in China, had not been deployed. As a result, Syntax-Brillian initiated negotiations to repurchase the LCD TVs for redistribution primarily into the North American retail channel. The inventory repurchase reduces accounts receivable from our customers in China by $99 million bringing the remaining balance to approximately $63 million, of which $48 million is due from South China House of Technology (“SCHOT”) and $15 million is due from Olevia Far East.

In the December quarter, total units shipped was approximately 252,000 which were shipped to North America and royalty revenue collected from China sales to Olevia Far East was approximately $3.2 million on unit volume of approximately 390,000. The inventory repurchase was approximately 26,800 units.
