$690.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Full 1080p resolution (1920 x 1200px). Quality S-PVA panel, superior to the majority of screens which are cheaper TN panels - better colour, viewing angles. Plethora of inputs - 2 x DVI, DisplayPort, HDMI, component, composite, VGA.
The Cons:Colours are quite inaccurate out of the box - needs calibration before being used professionally. Measurable input lag (64.1ms)
- not good for hardcore gamers.

#dell_ultrasharp_2408wfp If you're Canadian and you need a monitor today, this is on sale (Dell Days of Deals). Regular price of $699, it is on sale for $429.99. What a killer monitor. Definitely my #1 pick currently, and at this price it is unbeatable. Very few cons here! Sadly I only have the money to buy one. Hopefully a 2009 version will include LED backlighting and I will have enough cash to splurge on 2 in the next round of deals.
