Crapolla... Its been a while since I've done these exchanges. What's the timeline usually when you can replace/exchange for a newer one... 30-days or longer?
I've read previously that the fix will be in a form of firmware. At least, that's what I'm hoping so we won't have to go through all the hassle and time in physically doing an exchange. Correct me if I'm wrong of course (TIA).
Just got mine today. Got it up and calibrated via my friend's i1. Seems that the sharpness is in increments of 25 so its the 1st batch (unfortunately). I didn't notice any lag while playing COD4 and GRID (coming from my Samsung TN 2ms). No dead pixels fortunately. I have to do a test for...
In for 1 ($597.43 shipped to SF). Got a hold of a 20%-off coupon; couldn't resist any longer. My Samsung is going back to Costco =)
I hope that firmware update comes out soon if the monitor ain't new. Is there a way for Dell to hold shipment till new ones are confirmed, or is it all...
I saw some 2007WFPb on CraigsList for $200--might be worth checking them out. People seem to be going to a 24". HTH
PS. Doh--just realized that @M Diddy beat me to it =)
Sorry for the thread-pull but hmmm... this makes me think... I have a Samsung 2253LW 21.6" atm... it's great for gaming hands down. I wonder if it's best to just pick up a 2007FP as well (used for $200 on CraigsList) for Design/Photography stuff. Rather than spending some dough and getting one...
True. I run COD4 multi-player w/ AA and most settings off at 1680x1050. I get a constant 125fps most of the time (30-40+ players). I didn't get a chance to try those settings on the 245BW before sending it back but I did get 80-90 w/ max settings on 1920x1200. But yah, I don't need all that...
I have the Samsung 2253LW 21.6"... it does the job for gaming that is.
I'm waiting for a 24" myself, so I got it at Costco. Hopefully, either the 2407WFP-HC drops in price $400-450 shipped, and/or the 2408WFP's kinks gets fixed. HTH
... "though I read in the thread that it just occurs when it is fresh from a rest and gradually dies out" =)
Latest ones seem to have fixed that problem.
For the LG, I think it's L246W I had at first.
