Benq announced a new set of Full Hd monitors in 22" and 24" LCD size. According to this article prices will be around £150 for the E2200HDA and around £240 for the E2400HDA.

Key features are:
- Full hd 16:9 aspect ratio
- 1920x1080px resolution
- 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratios
- super-fast 2ms grey-to-grey response times
- HDMI 1.3, DVI and D-sub inputs

And look at the design!! These screens do really have the WOW-effect built in! Great stuff for the price.
 
I heard in October.
I need a new monitor like right now damn...
 
It might be a nice monitor for some gamers, but it is still a TN based panel. I would avoid this and buy a higher quality IPS display. 20wmgx2 comes to mind (if you can find one)
 
TN is not that all bad, at least, we are paying less money and getting faster response time.
Well, TN and 16:9 will be the mainstream that's for sure. There is just not much we can do about it, this is decided by panel factories.
 
yup, 16:9 will in fact get more and more mainstream. I read that panel manufacturers can get more 16:9 panels out of one raw material glass panel than 16:10. So it's a question of cost reduction.
 
I was really close to picking up a V2400, should I wait? What would I gain by waiting for this new one?

With the new one you will lose about 230 000 pixels of screen real estate. It might be good if your main use is console gaming as the resolution will be the same as Xbox/PS3 and you won't get those small black bars.

If you main use is PC, you are just getting less here not more.
 
V2400W = 1920 X 1200 E2400HD = 1920 X 1080
You are about to lose 230,400 scree but what you lose are the black bars and this might be why 16:9 manufacturer market it as entertainment solution.
But if you are close to pick V2400W I would think you won't lose anything pulling the trigger now to take advantage of their free shipping.
