Yeah I don't know guys.. the colours seem so much more vibrant, and the blacks darker on every glossy screen I've seen. I just bought my first IPS panel (a 2209wa) and my gf's plain old glossy HP TN looks brighter and more colourful, albeit with terrible viewing angles.
All a glossy coating does is destroy one's sense of contrast. If you were to take a photo you adjusted on a glossy screen and printed it, you'd find that the colours are way off. This is the reason why you'll never find anyone doing professional photo and video work using a glossy screen.
