Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Official BenQ FP241VW (not FP241W) Thread. Reviews and Pics
Do we know what panel is used? Someone recently posted a review on NCIX criticizing it for using a Samsung panel as initially reported in the Behardware preview of the FP241WZ, but denied by BenQ. I don't know if the reviewer knows what's going on with this monitor or not, but some confirmation... -

Official BenQ FP241VW (not FP241W) Thread. Reviews and Pics
NCIX now has the monitor in stock and a forum poster there added some new info. The main thing is that 1:1 is confirmed and a lot of other specs also confirmed on the updated BenQ site: http://www.benq.us/products/LCD/?product=671&page=specifications Time to hear some real world tests... -

NCIX does ship to the States. I checked NewEgg, but no listing there. I don't know who's actually going to carry it in the US, but NCIX has been reliable for many US buyers of the FP241W here so far. -

NCIX has stood by its expected ETA of 02/19/07 (tomorrow, for those keeping score) for the FP241VW since it was listed in December. The staff their stated that they would test one on arrival to see if it has 1:1 mapping and report to everyone. Anyone interested in this monitor (about $100 more... -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
Probably they are completely aware and just don't care to get the expensive equipment from BenQ HQ or pay the manhours... well minutes to perform the upgrade. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone who has experience with the FP241 has also tried the Acer 26" AL2616WD or Dell 2707? I was wondering... -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
Has anyone seen any production model reviews of the FP241WZ (or VW for that matter)? Seeing as BenQ refuted the claims of that early review's problems as a result of the monitor being a test model, I have been waiting to see a review of a more production monitor. -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
The thing that doesn't make sense to me is why they create something well enough that is bound to show the flaws in everything. The context in which you quoted doesn't change the fact that the implementation of this technology is not ideal, especially on a consumer level display where the... -

It's described as non-ideal. Sure when you have great speakers and poor sound files it sounds 'equally bad' as it would on a poor set of speakers, but this seems to be a case of the monitor being 'too accurate' or something along those lines which is causing more trouble than being beneficial to... -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
Regardless of the term I used, what I was describing could have been figured out pretty quickly. The 'gradation' problem that is being described, is it widespread like the 2407, or a defect only some people experience? -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
I don't know if this has been brought up before, but I was reading over the Dell forums to see if the banding trouble I had when I owned a 2407 (for a short time) were corrected or if the 2707 had similar problems. However, to my dismay I stumbled upon a thread by a user poking fun at the BenQ... -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
Perhaps, but in this case it seems a bit more pressing... what with the other manufacturers announcing the new tech. Blah, and I was so sold on the FP241 series up until this whole 1:1 thing popped up and delayed buying long enough for these new monitors to emerge. Regardless, I may go with one... -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
Hmm, anyone know if BenQ has plans to introduce something in the 26-inch range. As I said a page or so ago, the highest I would want to take 1920 x1200 is about 26-inch before the pixel/inch gets annoying. It seems odd that they decided to release the VW and Z version at 24-inch; at least one of... -

Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews
The only reason I would want to step up to a 26-28 inch size would be if they were to increase the resolution to match. Does anyone know whether any of the new monitors competing with the FP241 series will actually sport both a larger size and larger resolution or are they all just going to stay... -

I don't know if anyone has noticed it yet, but NCIX has the FP241VW listed (but not the WZ): http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=4159349&vpn=FP241VW&manufacture=BENQ%20CANADA%20CORP I don't know if I'm missing something, but their prices seem good, and their service policy looks...
