I was recently browsing the monitor section of the online store and discovered that this particular monitor is no longer being displayed, nor on any other sites that I looked for it on (The dell site and a competitors site). Is there a reason as to why this monitor is no longer being sold? Has it been re-branded or given a new model number or is it a case that this model has been totally phased out of the market?
 
it is very similarly priced to the U2410 which is superior being a IPS panel
that is dell pricing their own monitor out of the market they are geniuses arent they
 
I was under the impression that the U2410 was fraught with difficulties, also wasn't the 2408WFP also an IPS pannel?
 
The U2410 does seem to have some issues (well documented in this epic thread). Though, if you persevere - you will eventually get a good screen. And in the scheme of things, a "Good" U2410 is an excellent and astonishing screen to most people.

The 2408WFP uses an S-PVA panel and looks very nice. I believe it is now end-of-life, but if you do get your hands on one, it is a very nice all round screen. The most up-to-date A02 revision has basically eliminated the early input lag problem and makes for a very nice screen, though I imagine they will be tough to get hold of new. Here is a 2408WFP A02 review.

SP basically if I was looking for a top-end 24" screen with not much ofcus on cost then the dell U2410 is definitely the way to go? I would be looking to use a PS3 as well as the PC on the monitor, PC spec in sig.
