Same here, in the little bit of time that I used my new 2405FPW last night, I saw no lag whatsoever. Picture perfect...seriously better than I could have expected.
A++ from me...SO worth $699. If any of you are on the fence and can still get it from Brad at WiPro for that price, DO IT...
Just got my 2405, also a March 2006 manufacture date, revision A05. Flawless...no dead pixels, nothing.
Completely 110% satisfied with my purchase. VERY glad I went this route...it's beautiful...and huge.
Ah, Brad let you use the $60 off $500 coupon on your order? I ordered a 2405 from him on Friday, but didn't use this coupon.
Maybe I can drop him a line and get the $60 credit or something...
Yeah, we're in the same boat. But having gotten my 2405 for USD $699 + tax and free shipping, I don't regret my purchase at all. It's going to be a while before the 2407 issues are worked out and the revised models make it to market.
Going for a 2405 now is really a great alternative if you...
Just go to Flickr and do a search for 2405FPW and 2405. You'll find tons of pictures. There's also a "Show us your LCD setups!" thread here with hundreds and hundreds of postings.
I agree on all these points...same reason I bought a 2405 from Brad, too. The 2407 won't be $699 for a LONG time, or even $750, so I figured it was best to go with this now. And if they do have quality issues, I don't want one anyway.
Nice! Thanks for the contact info. I just picked up a 2405FPW from them for $699 + tax with free shipping. There's still the 21 day return policy, no questions asked, so that's good enough for me. If the 2407WFP comes out and looks good, I can make the swap.
Thanks again!
Yeah I agree with this. I can get a 2405FPW from Dell Home right now for $789 + tax with free shipping. I'd like to call them to see if they can get it to $750 like they did for the guy above. I kinda have issues paying that much for it when there's a new model coming out next week.
These...
I'm assuming that you mean a Dell salesperson named Brad? And if so, do you happen to have an extension or direct dial number for him?
If I could get a 2405FPW for $750 shipped, I'd probably just go ahead and get one today. It will be a while before we see 2407WFP deals.
I may wait'll...
Don't you all think you may be being a tad quick to judge here? Shouldn't we wait for a review from a more reputable, US-based site, such as AnandTech, Tom's Hardware, Hexus, etc.? These are also first revision 2407's, and it's been a good 4-6 weeks now. Perhaps the US will get a second...

Now that Japan buyers are receiving their 2407's, widescreengamingforum.com has a thread with 2407 pics posted. See link below:
