I'm looking to buy an S4 that I can use in the US and UK/Europe (when I'm traveling). It seems that Samsung does not make a phone that supports 4G frequencies in both the US and England. So, I'd be okay buying a phone that supports 4G in the US and 3G in the UK/Europe. To that end, I see...

Ah. Thanks.

Oh. This seems like an awful waste of two screens.

So, the only difference between this and the Transformer Book is that the Book detaches and this folds over?

http://www.asus.com/vivo/en/transformerBook.htm So, this thing seems like it could serve as both a replacement for my OG Transformer, while also being large and powerful enough to actually be productive. For the most part, it seems like a good device. I'm wondering if anyone here has played...

Hi everyone. I've got a BNIB i7-2700k that I'd like to sell. I'm asking for $280, firm. I'll accept paypal, money orders or cash, if the buyer can pick up. If you elect for a money order, I won't ship the chip until the money order clears. I prefer using UPS but, I'll also ship via USPS or...

I'll readily agree that there are a number of issues with LCD technology but, a continued increase in screen resolution isn't necessarily neglect. An increase may well improve performance, even if it doesnt address the problems you've mentioned. Concerning your camera, perhaps the 16MP...

I think the viewer might see a benefit to a resolution increase to 4K at standard viewing distances for laptop and desktop use. Of course, I have not done the actual math, myself. Either way, I think a resolution increase is going to happen, if only because it can be used as a marketing...

Not that I see this, I think I might need to get a DSLR with higher resolution, sometime soon. An 18mpix photo might not look too great on a 4K, 30" screen, 18 inches away.

Seems like waiting isn't worth my while, then.

The increases in cell phone and tablet screen resolutions in recent months has me wondering if we are going to see a parallel increase in resolution in desktop displays. A 20" 2560x1680 resolution, possibly? Has anyone heard anything? Should I wait to buy something new?

I have almost 49000 hours on mine.

Indeed it was. But, why is no one developing it anymore? Were there some technical hurdles that could not be overcome? Or, was it a business development decision?

Why is SED dead?

Ha. Ok, CCFL it is then. And, since the Samsung is so damn reflective, I'll just spring for the NEC.

Is it worth waiting for an LED based IPS monitor? And, do you think the Apple and HP monitors have an advantage because of their LED backlight? I would assume that the NEC is still better but, what about in comparison to the other options?

Size isn't a problem, at all.

Have you watched any movies on it? I don't game but, I would watch movies/TV shows.

Do you know if they have one to look at in the store?

I'll have to check it out in store, somewhere. Maybe J&R will have it.

Thanks for the post but, glossy screens hurt my eyes. It's not an issue of image quality.

Current reviews for the PLS display aren't too encouraging.

I guess I will be $1500 dollars richer then. But, out of curiosity, what 27 incher would you recommend that is over 2K?

Ok, so I am using the wrong terms then. Matte antiglare is fine but, a glossy finish is not.

Perhaps I'm using the incorrect terminology here. I'd like to buy a screen that has the same coating as my Dell 2007WFP. I assumed that this has a matte coating and that the glossy monitors I've used are the glossy/AG kind. Am I wrong?

Hold on. Isn't a matte coating the opposite of a glossy anti-glare coating? I have a decent colorimeter already so, if that Samsung S27A850D is a good screen, I can make good use of it.

I'm looking for the best 27" screen for photo work. I'm specifically concerned with color accuracy as, I'd like the photos that I print to best match what I see on screen. Past research has shown that NEC makes the best monitors for this purpose and so, I've got my eye on the PA271W. Before I...

I've also noticed this with images on webpages (with the Asus browser), in addition to pictures I've taken and moved to the Transformer.

Speaking generally, colors seem to be accurate and compare favorably to the iPad. The problem is that stills look rather soft and, there is significant aliasing on the Transformer screen, when compared to the ipad. The catch is that I've only had such issues when viewing images with native...

Got my transformer in last week. So far, its not bad. The still picture quality is worse than expected, though. It is quite a bit worse than my mothers ipad. I thought they were using the same ips screen. Has anyone else noticed this? Its something that could make me return this device unless...

Eh, being able to output 1080P via HDMI well would be a welcome feature for me. My parents have a ~$1500 dollar HDTV and, sometimes I like to play the HD movies I have at their place. It's a pain in the butt to dig up the discs as, they are in storage.

That's fine. It has already been established that this unit isn't really designed for viewing or, outputing 1080P content. That's fine. I would like, though, decent 720P playback at low to moderate bit rates. Enough for it to look respectable and, without choppiness. The tablet would be...

Good God. This is a perfunctory diatribe of outlandish proportions. Relax! If you have something to say, just say it. Sheesh. Anyway, as has already been established, the unit can play 720P content at moderate bitrates both, via streaming content or, from a local file. The problem is that...

Yeah, I'm very tempted to cancel my preorder at J&R, especially with the issues the Transformer is having with HD video. If a software update fixes them, at least for 720P, I could be satisfied, even if the Tegra3 came out in August or September.

I keep hearing that Tegra 3 tablets are supposed to be available by fall of this year. Considering how late NVIDIA has been with Tegra 2, does anyone here actually think that the chip will be available in 2011? I'd hate to get a transformer and have an obsolete piece of hardware in 2 months...

What is baseline h264? I found basic information about it on google but, nothing conclusive.

Ok, I will do that. Thanks.

Also, can the tablet alone function as a host?

Has anyone attempted to view 1080P content on this thing? I'm specifically concerned with outputing the video and audio via HDMI. In either case (viewing on screen or via HDMI), is the video smooth?

Ok, great.
