Oops, stupid shopbot. It was this more pricey link: http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?affiliateid=4352418&sku=32395&promoid=1034That's not the Gateway XHD3000 that's the LG W3000H-BN
That's not even comparable. What i like about the gateway monitor is the awesome number of inputs and superb upconversion of sources with resolution other than 2560x1600 cause I want to use it with my PC / PS3 / DVD / TV.
I'm considering getting this monitor from JR, but am a bit confused with the warranty options.
I noticed two 3-year warranties that appear to be identical in description and the only differences i could find are the item # and the price.
Repair Master A-RMSP3 3-Year Screen Damage Protection Warranty Service Plan - $89.99
and
Repair Master A-RMSCP3 3-Year Screen Damage Protection Warranty Service Plan - $154.99
Anyone know what the difference is? Ideally, I would like to go with the cheaper one, but also don't want to be left unprotected.
Thanks,
JD
Mine just came in a couple days ago, and I've been tweaking with it since..only so much to do though...err..too many exams to focus on.
I bought it w/ the cheaper screen damage (3 years) AND a computer peripheral (3 year)..if you get the screen damage, you are actually required (spoke w/ cust. rep at JR) to get the "computer peripheral 3 year Warranty (69.99)
So in Total
RMP32000 - 3 year 69.99
RMSP3 - 3 year 89.99
I know calibrations are all subjective, but anyone care to post what kind of settings they are running w/ this beast?
How the )*^^ can they be sold out on an extended warranty?Thanks,
I pulled the trigger on this tonight, but they were sold out of the 3yr peripheral @ $69.99 so I ended up getting the one at $74.99 and the 3yr screen for $89.99. With shipping my total was $1106 and change and I have alittle over $74 in live cashback waiting for me in 60 days.

Been doing quite a bit of gaming and I have not noticed any blackouts. Are you running 1.01 firmware for the display? That's what my display reads.i love my xhd3000, but the intermittent "black outs" are annoying. has anyone else been having these black outs? any fixes out there?
i would think about exchanging it, but the issue seems uniform across the board.
I had to fax some info over to their customer service center in Queens, NY to have the difference refunded. I need to call them tomorrow and see what the status is since I haven't received an email confirmation from them.cnk said:J&R are pretty good about price adjustments so you shouldn't have any problems getting the money back. I did speak with a corporate salesperson as well and he indicated that the $899 price is only $33 above cost so I don't think the price will drop much further. . .that is if you believe what the rep said.
The warranty should be $59.99. That's what I paid for the 3y <$1000 device plan.Thanks,

Yup. I fired up a copy of Siperman 3 Blu-Ray on my PS3 which is connected via HDMI @1080p and it's on my desktop all it's hi res glory. If I mouse over the PiP region, it goes transparent so I can see what's behind it. You have to have the EzTune software installed for it to work.Hi, I have a question. Is it possible to watch HDCP protected content in PIP mode? E.g., if I have HDTV that connects from a set-top-box to the monitor via HDMI cable and if the HDTV uses HDCP protection, will I be able to watch it in PIP window?
For the person asking about calibration, don't worry about settings that people are using. Just install the EzTune software and follow the calibration wizard. Just have a keyboard with a long enough cord for the color calibration tests using the gray box within striped background. You'll need to sit back a bit from the display for the test to work properly.
The HQV chip is upscaling and de-interlacing if necessary anything you feed it to 1600p. The manual actually suggests using 1080i for any device that has the ability since they feel the de-interlacer used in the monitor is better than what's available in your device. I use 1080p from the PS3. There might be more to it, I did kind of breeze through the manual. I think they could have done away with the whole 1600p bit since you don't get that outside of PC usage. But it is an attention grabber!Thanks, I'll do that and keep it in mind.
When you hook up your Spiderman-3 on Blu-Ray, In theory, your monitor is upconverting that 1080p to a resolution higher...no? (i.e. the 1600p)...I understand that actual 1600p is more of a marketing run, but does it still de-interlace and reconvert it back to it's native resolution?
In any case, I'm sure the resolution is excellent.

Thinking about getting one now.
Just got my monitor today and got it hooked up. I can't believe I waited this long to buy one. I don't notice any lag so I'm very happy. No dead pixels. . .perfect panel once I turned down the brightness.
I think there is some truth to that. I notice flicker in certain lights where others don't notice it so maybe I'm just sensitive to it.les_garten said:Personally I think all LCD's have a bit of a "Pulse" to them compared with CRT's.
Sorry to read that, how is that HP monitor working out? I was looking at that model when the Cash Back deals were in full swing but I couldn't get past the lack of an HDMI input, scaler and audio connectivity.anodize said:I got my replacement and it had back light bleeding on top corners to an unacceptable state.

Well, it appears i probably won't be getting my monitor until next week. JandR is dragging their heels....
The rep said she will try to get it out tonight by setting up the warranty as a partial (shipped separately).
Mine is Out For Delivery!!!!

I think we need clean up over here, he just popped!IT'S HERE !!!
It's amazing. I'd seen 30" Apple Cinema displays at stores before, but it's something else to see your own apps,photos, or games at this resolution. Stunning.
I played some cstrike @ 2560x1600 and was getting silky smooth gameplay on a single 8800GT. Left4Dead however... not so much. I dropped L4D resolution down to 1920x1200 and played smooth.
After playing these two games, I can now see what people mean by "input lag." But for someone to return or get rid of this monitor becuase it was too much is . . . I dunno... a bit excessive to me. Unless you're playing competitively, you'll get used to the minute input lag in about 10 min lol.
ALL IN ALL THIS THING IS GREAT! Please feel free to ask questions !
