Let me know how you get on. Do remember that what works for one panel will probably not work for another. I'm sure you know this already. It's a real pain in the backside.
Yes! Me likey! My colour settings were all within one notch of yours, Your brightness and contrast settings were 5 and 6 notches higher respectively. Adjusting mine to roughly the same has made everything 'leap' out quite a lot more. A tad loud for surfing yes, but I just sit back a few more inches and all is well. These are nice settings for gaming though. I take it you left your Gamma settings as is?
Thanks again.
Yeah really the brightness is just to make things jump out during gaming and lower settings are more comfortable for extended periods of office work or browsing. 
I did indeed leave the gamma alone. Glad the settings helped people - it's always a good thing.

Dropped the bomb too. I get to work from home tomorrow however so mine's arriving soon!pulled the trigger with 3d Vision gear, saturday delivery so I can actually get the stuff.
merry xmas to me
I think the response time on this unit tipped it for me, ultimately all the 3D Vision capable displays are lacklustre in comparison to the best standard units. This seemed to be 'best of the worst' as I recently dropped a 580 into my system ans have been desperate for quality 3D gaming for years now.
Could do with more 3D gameplay feedback if I'm honest. Perhaps even some recommended settings to compensate for the loss of light the nVidia shutter glasses would be groovy too.

Please report your findings on 3d and the monitor in general as i am also interested in 3d and want to know what its like. I had a quick go on the ps3 on a 3d tv with gran turismo 5 and i thought it was pretty rubbish because of the terrible double image, would be interested to see if its the same on pc thanks
I was waiting for some reviews of this monitor before ordering, but decided to just take the plunge considering it came down in price for this week only (thanks ocuk!). It should arrive today, so once i've played around with it, im gonna post my thoughts on it
Just a note, i'm not a monitor expert or anything of that nature, but i know a good picture when i see one
. I also bought this for the 3D, so i got the nvidia 3D vision kit with it. I'm going to test 120hz on both dvi and hdmi (you never know!), and also going to see if i can get it working with my ps3 too. Im not too hopeful, but again, you never know!

Im not too hopeful, but again, you never know!The methodology and inherent inaccuracies of any such value will be outlined in some detail in the final review and I don't want to spoil it by giving an exact figure. Needless to say input lag is brilliantly low on the XL2410T - to stop your curiosity getting the better of you, measured as just under 10ms on average.
Also tested on 'instant mode' but results were very similar (slightly lower recorded value). We don't have any sort of super-accurate measuring instrument like a photodiode or anything similar so given the innaccuracies that's neither here nor there. The problem with some methodologies relying on the 'frames behind' technique is the accuracy of 8.33ms that you are limited to by the 120Hz refresh rate. So if you see the transition somewhere between '0' and '1' frame do you count that as a '1' (8.33ms lag) or '0' (0ms lag). Obviously keeping on recording as '0' scews your results and you could be reporting zero input lag when infact you have 5ms input lag. Either way anything under 10ms is excellent and you won't be able to discern the difference between that and anything much closer to zero. The pixel response time must also be considered and I can assure you that 2ms is absolute best-case and in most cases the transition time is considerably longer.
