What we need is Dell to refresh their 30" LCD with more inputs than a single lousy DVI-D input. WTF DELL.
It would be nice if it also adopts the aluminum look of the 27" design.

The 2407-HC (High Contrast) already puts out 92% of the colour gamut.

Does this imply though that an eventual '2408' will finally see HDMI as a standard input over DVI?

What's the response time of the 24 incher?
That's the key question these days, what with there being no 24 inch monitors with less than 5ms response times.
I think the 2ms response on the latest 24inch Acer must have been a typo or something because the 22 inch version was 5ms and response doesn't get better with screen size.

The reason that the response time on the bigger monitors is because they are mostly either s-pva or mva. This means that the colour representation is true 8 bit per colour representation, which is the only useable monitor in photoediting and film making.
TN panels, like the Acer have a better response time but have terrible viewing angles and even worse colour representation in comparison. Its also worth mentioning that the response time that the Acer 24" monitor states is the grey-to-grey response time, which is vastly less than the Black to White response time, which is what your really should be looking at.
Personally, Ive got the Dell 2407WFP HC (a s-pva panel) and it is a great all round monitor. I watch plenty of films, play lots of games and edit all of my photos. I have never noticed any difference in gaming or watching films (in terms of response time) compared to previous TN panels I've had and the advantages of having incredible viewing angles and decent colour representation greatly outweigh any other possible dissadvantages.

The old designs were better.

A few weeks ago I bought a Samsung 22", have to see if I can get any money back for it. Any idea when this is expected stateside?

Waiting for a 27" update
EL_RIEL @ Oct 11th 2007 12:08PM
mmmhhh im in the market for a wide color gamut 24" LCD.
So this "low end" E series from Dell will make it to the USA?
Current 2407WFP-HC is about 600+ usd..
I guess i will have to wait another month to find out :(

I bought a Dell 2407WFP HC a few months ago and I love it as well. It does great with photos, video ect.

I'm tempted to buy that monitor, but I'm wondering if I should wait for an LED backlit variant.

I'm really keen on the Samsung 225MW because of its additional TV tuner. I can plug in my PS3 and switch between tv and computer. :)
