The 21.3-inch LCD has a whole host of features, including an LED backlight (most use cold cathode fleurescent lamps) with feedback circuitry that allows it to stabilize brightness and contrast, support for Adobe RGB (which syncs your digital color to your screen screen), two DVI-D inputs, DDC/CI color calibration, and a 220cd/m2 brightness level."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/billionnex.jpg" /><br /><br />I take two please. :) I wish the source URL was up, but apparently the site is down so I am linking to Engadget's post on the subject. But a billion colors, WOW! No price announced yet but I am sure it will be able to earn lots of points on your credit card.

Hmm overkill perhaps, at least for the consumer.

I'd personally rather own one of those new apple displays, but since I can't get either.... 8)

Yea, overkill.

Exactly, all of these are castles in the sky. But given a choice and assuming you were not paying for it, would you take this one or the Apple 30"?

The more expensive one. Or to be more precise, the one that can be sold at a higher price. =P

Haha, I like how your mind works. So you would just sell it on eBay, huh? :)

Heck, with a display like that I would almost be tempted to move to LCDs. I like my nice large CRT monitor with fast response rate and wide accurate colour range. Still, bring these LCD monitors on! :D

Hey, no point keeping frivolous items, might as well spin some cash outta them. eBay is a good place too, many suckers to be found. :twisted:
