Pretty in the "Minority Report" kind of way, but overpriced.

They did all that work, charged all that money, then stuck a TN panel in it?

Lame... I'm talking Night Court in its fifth season lame.
 
Looks really nice, but...

For one I do not need speakers, for two I do not need to spend $900-$1000 more than what other 22" monitors are going for...especially since it is not even anything special! I would rather have a full color calibrated graphics monitor for that kind of money.
 
Personally, I don't really like some of the newer designs of the bezels that Dell is coming up with. What was wrong with the look of the 2X07 series?
 
I hope this thing bombs, no offense to anyone that is interested but they are trying to blend quality monitor housing design and some sort of "contemporary art-like" display architecture with a crappy panel on the inside. Furthermore who wants speakers on a 20" monitor?

They should have used IPS or VA and put this on a 24"+ monitor.

Looks over functionality has always bugged me.
 
Looks like it will have an external power supply with the video/audio inputs on that...
 
$1200 for a bloody 22" TN panel?? is this someone's idea of a sick joke?? god buy a 226BW or a HP w2207 and a set of logitech z-5500's and you'd probably get a better product from both AND spend less!
 
looks hot..but totally not worth it. that would only look good in a clean nice house like the ones you see in gangster movies...which in that case you are rich enough to buy it
 
I agree. I'd much rather have the 2x24", or 27" or even 30" for the money. I'm sure it will appeal to some people, but not me. Not unless I win the lottery. (And even then probably not).

Not really my style. I think it would look really out of place next to most other computer towers. I suppose it would go ok with the high end logitech stuff, (MX revolution, Dinovo Edge.)

Think Dell will roll out a computer to compliment this?

They could make a whole new product line out of stuff like this.

I saw this a months ago. Looks neat but I think I'll take a vacation to the Bahamas before picking this baby up. And I don't much like the look. I would rather have an apple display design.
 
i woould buy it for 299 to use in my retail store just for the look but 1200 ...hahahahahahaha ahahahhahaah ahahahahaha omg haahahahaahh
