    Getting used to monitor

    I want from 17" to 25.5", and it did not take long. Just make sure to position is far enough on your desk so that it is comfortable on your eyes.

    2408WFP Input Lag?

    Or you have less sensitivity to this issue? I also returned mine because the cursor was hard to control due to input lag.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    How are people dealing with using component sources? I have a Wii and a cable STB, and although the STB works fine with a component->HDMI converter from monoprice, the Wii looks nasty through it, and even managed to cause the monitor to "lock up" (hard power down required). The converter also...

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    I can't tell you what page it was on, but I seem to remember someone talking about the sub par analog connection on this panel in terms of needing to tweak positioning etc.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    I endorse this statement 100%. Even though my set top box does not work with it (although a 40$ component to HDMI then an adapter to DVI works well), and I need to add even more hardware to use my Wii with it, there's no way I could go to a lesser panel.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Do you have links for this? Do you work somewhere that gives you privileged information? Because otherwise, you look like someone pushing a scare tactic through a second account for reasons unknown.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Wait, are you guys making buying decisions based on a premonition? Or are there more facts to back this up?

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Dell appears to have the 263n in stock, for 760. Says it ships in 24 hours.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    I'm tempted to return my 263n as I come up on the 30 day grace period at Amazon. It doesn't work with my Motorola DCT-3412 STB, which does not appear to afflict just me. I purchased a component to HDMI converter which works, but I have to let the STB scale 480i signals, which leaves ugly...

    Dell 20 inch panels

    Perhaps they put those connections on their "multimedia" monitors. The 2408 has those connectors, but these days 20" monitors are considered "simple" desktop displays.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Has anyone talked to DS, or otherwise found information on the problem with set top boxes? Kind of tired of watching via svideo or firewire. I e-mailed them a week or two ago and got no response. I keep meaning to call them, but seem to forget until they have been closed for a few minutes.

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    Is there a place to find out reliable information on the "standard timing table" for the DS? I am hacking away trying to figure out why this is not working with my STB, and before I go flashing my EDID and breaking it, it would be good to know I have reliable source info.

    Dell Warranty?

    Get the serial number (a mixture of numbers and letters, but not the express service tag), and then log onto their support site, and click on the warranty options. It's pretty easy to navigate. EDIT: oops, forgot to refresh while posting. I forgot to check on my 2408 when I had it, but it...

    DoubleSight DS-263N - 26"

    More cons: 6) does not work with a number of Motorola set top boxes (DCT3412, for example) 7) has issues waking up from sleep for some 8) small amount of back light bleed in the upper right corner 9) OSD "joystick" kind of sucks, although it is not often used Even with these...
