Mine just came in, i pulled it out the box and was absolutely shocked at how huge it is.

I hooked it up, turned it on, and OMFG Its almost surreal how big that thing is...

HOLY $*@#*$!!!!!!!!

All I can say is, I had Dual 2005's and they will be on ebay before the end of the week. A Single 2405 is unbelievable.

I quickly hooked up the HD Cable box and flipped through the HD Channels, took me awhile to find one that was in 16:9 aspect ration (DiscoveryHD) and its just unbelievable.

A 24" Monitor that Doubles as a HDTV for that price is unreal. UNFRIGGINREAL!!!!!!!!

I had to go back to work, I was already late so didnt get to play alot with it. ran DPB quickly and didnt see any stuck/dead pixels at first glance. so will keep the fingers crossed.

Again, this thing is a steal at $1200, so if you can get it for anything less, jump all over it.

I'll post some pics later just for peeps to see the HD Cable and stuff on it.
 
I'm on the same boat. I have dual 2005FPW setup right now and just ordered my 2405FPW today for $899 (not the worsest deal), but I'm planning to keep one of the 2005FPW for dual screen. I do alot of multitasking.
Do you think you got more than enough space with single 2405FPW vs 2x2005FPW?
 
Good to hear JB22, I ordered one of these yesterday :D Now just waiting for it to come :( Hopefully i'll be as impressed, should be a nice upgrade to my current 15" although not sure if my graphics card is up to it :/
 
lol, that's the same exact reaction I had when I got mine! I've had mine only a few weeks now, and every time I crank up my system, and turn that puppy on, I still say "wow".

I was driving into the neighborhood when I saw Brown go by, I about went up over the curb turning around to catch him. Sure enough, my 24" beauty was in the back. I just experienced nirvana about 3 hours ago, this thing is absolutely worth the money, even if you pay full price. I'm just sitting here grinning as I look east to west across this sweet a$$ landscape. No dead pixels, no buzzing. BF is ok, I can definately see the difference in game play on such a large LCD, that's the only disappointment.
 
I havent had enough time with it, I will let you know how it works out single and with a 2005 companion. I also have another 2405 that I ordered for a friend. I got em for 750+ tax and shipping, so around 830ish total.

I just called time warner to get the $4 HD Package that includes YesHD and ESPNHD. I cant wait to get home and check it out.
 
arrg! You guys are makin me crazy, i have to wait till the 29th just for it to ship! :eek:

Same here, hopefully this is just an estimate and we'll get them sooner... either way this monitor will be so huge I have to remove the hutch from my desk (can't afford a new one just yet after buying this beast heh) I have a feeling this will be one of the best PC purchases I've made.
 
Mine was slated to ship the 29th too, They will ship sooner Im sure.

HD Cable on this thing is the shit... Un F****** real!!

wow!
 
damm, i was going to order 1 but i guess im too late with it already..
it was first introduce as a price of around 1800 AUD in australia, i was still deciding if im going to buy it or not, then they have a even cheaper price of 1550 AUD!!!!
i was going to jump on it but then i was like 1day late and its all gone already :(
