Have to say i like the look of it, and as i'm in the market for a 24"er i'm interested if anyone comes accross a review or has any more info.

at £375.99 inc VAT it seems a little steep for a TN panel (it is a TN right?), and you could get a nice PVA for a few squds more. is the 10,000:1 ratio worth the cost?

I guess the new dell will be out at a similar time, still might be holding out for that instead.
 
Just looked at that one myself. Looks quite nice but have to agree on the panel type. Has badass reviewed this one yet?
 
That seems expensive to me, especially for a TN - and I guess it is with viewing angles like that.

Hopefully this will be the death throes of TN for 24" screens. I think the bad angles show up more on 24" making them very bad for watching films or using as a TV. Gamers are ok, but the price is too much. PVA's are the way to go and manufacturers know this, so i reckon this is just a cash in.
 
Was gonna say..... if its TN then no thx

looked like it was finaly gonna give dell and others a run for its money guess not.

Need to wait till next month for dells 2408
