The comment about the new 24 inchers coming out in June is in reference to a post by Kleox64 in the "What is *THE* 24-incher today?" thread. (Bleh: I can't seem to figure out how quote linking works in this forum so I'll just copy-paste it):

Thanks. None of my DVD's are hi-def anyway. As far as sound goes: I have a home-built silenced PC (water cooled with a Zalman Reserator), a Creative X-Fi card and Creative Z4 2.1 speakers, so no problem there! :)
Thanks for the correction. I edited my post. In my excitement I must have reverted back to earlier research. Rushing=sloppy=me bad.
Good to know that even 0.297mm is OK (at least for you).
Ah, many thanks for pulling the trigger on this. I was aware that you had ordered one and was hoping you'd have some thoughts -- and here they are!
Very reassuring about the silence. Although the 2690 is a different beast I was still concerned that a poor power supply vendor might also...
Missed one:

24" Widescreen
IPS Based
I call it the LCD2690WUXi's "Little Brother". Apparantly it's not available in Europe, though.

OK, there is a small announcment on tftcentral (for Japanese availability):

I'm still amazed at the lack of reviews. I sure wish some big name review site somewhere would put this 24'" widescreen H-IPS monitor through its paces. It's been...
According to NEC's pdf product sheet
http://www.necdisplay.com/cms/documents/ColorBrochures/90Series_wide_Brochure_0107.pdf
(both monitors are featured) other than physcal and power differences the differences are:
24" has 6ms gtg, 72% Adobe RGB color space, 0,27mm dot pitch
26"...
Thanks for the updates, travbomb.
I've been checking newegg daily and it's finally off backorder. Newegg is more expensive then just about all the other on-line vendors, still...
...Tempting!
At least they (and Provantage) will show if they have stock or not and not string you along...
I'm rather surprised at the lack of info/threads regarding this 24" wide-screen S-IPS (actually H-IPS) monitor. Considering the amount of attention the LCD2690 has gotten I would have thought there would be more about its "little brother" at least on this forum.
Granted, the 2490WUXi won't be...
