The 19-inch VX924 will be available in May, while the 17-inch VX724 will be available in June. I can’t wait to see one of these in action. I bet it looks great."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/viewsonic_4ms.jpg" /><br /><br />Wow! This makes my 18" Dell LCD monitor's 25ms seem as slow as molasses. The video quality on these LCDs must look amazing. I'll take one, no..make that two! :)

I just bought a 19 inch Envision lcd with a 25 ms response time last week to replace my 3+ year old 17" MAG. Don't really watch movies or play games on the computer, so 25 ms is just fine. Plus, I only paid $299 for the 19".

More marketing again. Please read the article posted by Jason earlier (supplied by yours truly):

In short, this is likely to be using the inferior TN matrix rather than S-IPS. Note that 16ms on TN and 25ms on S-IPS can look very similar in real life. Once again, don't trust the marketing figures without knowing the full picture.

I wonder though at what point our eyes can even tell the difference? On my 18ms monitor DVDs and videos look great...
