I have a Samsung 226CW, amazing screen, but it does need calibrating. Games are something else on it, truly great.
No DVI but its not required when its got a HDMI. Virtually the same thing.
Aye just get a converter, or dvi->hdmi cable. Works perfectly.
Another happy w2207h owner here.

Incredible colours for a TN, does very well with dark images.
Glossy screen looks really nice.
Monitor itself is very well built. Feels expensive!
Fantastic adjustable stand, so important for a TN screen
Good price
Hardware Scale-to-aspect (no 1:1)
No visible ghosting
HDMI!

A small bit of backlight bleed. Only noticed in gears of war night time level.
Pivot is a waste of time. TN screen viewing angles don't suit this function.
5ms response time. Adaquate for 99% of people, but there's faster panels out there.
Yup I got a DVI to HDMI cable from a certain auction site for £5. Works perfectly.
I would'nt say the Pivot is a waste of time, I pivot the montior when I'm trying to clean the damn thing. Helps me out loads..!!
I must say I never experienced that with my 24". I thought I would have problems and basically planned to have two browser windows taking half the screen each for optimal jumbo widescreen whoredness, using tweakui to have windows set focus to which ever window i rolled over.
I never needed to though. It's nice to not have to do uber scrolling because you can only fit 15 words on a line.
Biggest adjustment for me was having to get used to moving my head to see the whole screen!
