2405FPW next to 32" Hyundai (A321)

Just a couple of poor pics of my new toy, makes the in-car view in PGR3 to scale, as I tried to show. Yet to tidy and include the 2001FP in the spread (good height match in portrait for the 32"). Not good indicators of quality and such, mostly just avoiding finishing off the single biggest piece of work for my degree which is handed in tomorrow :eek:

Didn't realise the camera was on low-res...ah well, intended to show size anyhow.

I've been playing about with it and the IQ is really nice...I'm getting slight text blurring on component, although I think that may be down to poor cables. Can't get the PC working over DVI, don't think it supports the PC-in, but on VGA it looks great. I've ordered a VGA switch so I don't have to mess around and can have 360 and PC through VGA.

Niggles...have to use the menu to swap sources, black levels are good but could always be better. No HDMI is a pain. Is the only difference between this and the Q321 that the Q-series have ID?

OcUK refunded me on the Q261, their stock adjuster went funny or some such jive...I bought the A321 elsewhere but the broken DVI port warranted RMA and I'm currently pending refund. I'll be ordering a Toshiba 32WL66 once I've got my money back.

If nothing else, the 'free' 32" LCD TV loaner has made me sure that its what I want. Perfect size and beautiful picture. You're meant to sit 8' from a 32" screen, I was sitting about 2' back and XBOX360 use was very pretty, as was PC. Blurring is barely an issue anymore...the amount you spend pretty much desides your black levels. Can't fault these things much.

Its a Kensington 60107, but you have to tighten the bolts up a fair bit as its only meant for 17" screens. Got one on my 2001FP too.
