    I get this problem, with the faint red outline around text, only with certain preset color schemes. There is a button to allow you to cycle through various preset color options. Try that.

    Xbox 360 and PS3 games do not run natively in 1080p. 98% of games only run natively in 720p. You only see 720p upscaled to 1080p...which is really just 720p. And in 1280*720 you are going to see some jaggies with a monitor this size. That's the way it is on any big-sized screen. It needs to be...

    The blinking out problem is an issue that doesn't have a concrete fix AFAIK. btw, are you using component or HDMI for PS3?

    Driver problems may be the problem, but I'm using an ATI card with drivers from 2 years ago (newer drivers give degraded performance with my old card) and with my old monitor I was able to switch from DVI on PC to VGA on 360 just fine with the current drivers.

    An NCIX guy on their forum says they'll get new stock today or tomorrow. EDIT: Looks like they got some units. One guy says his order got shipped today. Probably wait out the rest of today and tomorrow and if nothing happens by later tomorrow, call NCIX. (Mine hasn't shipped either.)

    MAJOR UPDATE!! I just heard from NCIX that this monitor model is in the process of either being discontinued or no longer being distributed in America. The stock they had is no gone and they only expect another small shipment of left-overs. If you still want this monitor, better act soon!

    NCIX update: It seems like they got new stock yesterday at their warehouse. They only had a couple at their stores until now and 0 at the warehouse, but the warehouse stock changed to 25 (down to 19 at this time). They also will get another 28 by the 17th. So presumably if they got new stock 2...

    Do NCIX.com and NCIXUS.com get stock from the same warehouse? I want to ensure a Sep2007 monitor but NCIX.com doesn't accept US credit cards only paypal (sucks). Should I get a crappy paypal account or just order from the US site?

    Does this monitor work properly (1:1 with black borders) on Xbox 360 and PS3? Also, how is the image quality on 360? Which looks better with 360: Component or VGA (don't have an HDMI 360)?

    Where can I order online to ensure a September 2007 monitor? NCIXUS.com says they don't know which monitor I'm gonna get and newegg.com has a backlog of some old monitors.

    Problem is I can't find it anywhere in my area so I can only order it from NCIXus.com. So it's sort of a gamble. I do now that someone here: http://www.bexox.com/showdown.htm says that another version of the monitor (FP241WZ) can display 720p images without cropping issues on older firmware...
