well i work one of those types of shops that sell gateway stuff (got to pay my way though uni some how) and i noticed while i was doing some price checks and changes that on my print out was a gateway 21" monitor, well that what was showing on the till and my list so i did a bit of checking. no stock anywhere of it but it must be coming and it was around the 300 quid mark , presuming this uk one has the same specs as the us one (hopefully) i use my discount and pick one up for a 270 ish , which would be quite good its not the same quality as the samsung 21" but all the same connectors and hdcp and in black a good enough quality for me anyway , any thoughts ?
 
it's using the same 8ms G2G Samsung S-PVA panel as the Samsung 215TW (LTM210M2) so performance will be pretty comparable. Should be a good screen and not a bad price at all if you can get it for ~£270
 
an update , i should get 1 in work tomomr the spec sheet of out WAN says ist the same FDP2185W in black (most uk gateway stuff is a grey) same specs , no mention of HDCP but considering were not a major retailer for this sort of etctronic stuff im not consured , only a 1year warranty but with my staff discount i could get 3 years cover for a total of about 330 to 350 which still would make 100 cheaper than the samsung and in black , spec sheet also talks about it have in a "DCDI by Faroudja" like the dells 2xx7wfp's not that it meen much i take some photos tommor if its good i buy 1
