    Gateway FPD2485W - 24" HD LCD

    Does anybody know anything more on the 720p issue over HDMI on PS3? I installed version 1.54 on my PS3 but 720p still fills the whole screen. The aspect ratio control in fact doesn't do anything on 720p. Did anyone call Gateway for this?

    NEC LCD2690

    Does anybody know how to locate either a LCD2690WUXi-BK-SV or the one without the SpectraView II? I would prefer to buy the bundle but I cannot find it anywhere in the US. I really wouldn't like to place a backorder cause they tend to be unpredictable. travbomb do you have any suggestions?

    NEC LCD2690Wuxi for photography / photo-editing

    Thanks for the info guys. Out of curiosity, did any of you experiment with the ultra low brightness mode available through the avdvanced settings? One more kinda random question? Have you tried connecting the 2690 to HDTV signals such as 480p, 720p and 1080p? I was wondering if you can...

    NEC LCD2690Wuxi for photography / photo-editing

    High brightness is actually my main issue with the current generation panels. I am glad to hear that you can turn down the brightness of your 2690 all the way down to 120 (cd/m2 I assume) but I was wondering if you could be a bit more specific on how dim that actually feels. How dark is the...

    That's great news Meow, congrats. Could you by any chance share where you got your Nec from? I am trying to locate one but no one has it in stock.

    That's exactly what I thought too. The first step in tuning ClearType is choosing between RGB and BGR sub-pixel configuration and that sounds that could easily be the source of the problem. Try using the ClearType power toy at: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/ClearTypePowerToy.mspx

    The more I think of it the more the 2690WUXi is calling my name ... Sure the 275t is a good $600 cheaper but no one knows when it's coming out ...

    Congrats! Could you please share the place where you got your monitor from? I am trying to find one in the US but no one seems to have it in stock. I called NEC and they couldn't help me either. BTW, is the SV version released in the states yet?

    NEC LCD2690

    Thanks so much for the info. I cannot help but wondering though, who those "various distributors" are :) If you could post a few retailers (the more the better) I would greatly appreciate it and I will follow up with a call with them in a day or two.

    Gateway FPD2485W - 24" HD LCD

    I totally agree with you that 1920x1080 60Hz is correct. I was just curious why they didn't call that 1080p in the menu as they did with everything else (1080i, 720p, 480p). I was pointing out a matter of consistent naming not malfunction. This is interesting to know about the new output...
