The hp zr30w was the only other very high rez ips panel in the running for me until I researched enough about the over-agressive AG coating on all the non ACD mfg's high rez ips panels this gen... check the u2711 thread today and you will see a few people who couldn't believe how horrible it was and had to return theirs.
.. Having suffered over-aggressive AG coating on a 20.1" 1680x1050 viewsonic at one point, there was no way I was putting up with that on a higher pixel density (vs text especially) $1100+ ips panel like the hp, or the over-aggressive AG + bad input lag due to scaler on the u2711... and greasy whites and haze/frost on everything else.
...
... also, according to that anandtech article, highly dependent on brightness setting, the color gamut on the acd is 83.17 not 73.
