What function?
Thank you Will for taking the time to inform us on this upgrade.The main changes in this updated version of the LCD2690 are:
1. Color gamut increased slightly - mainly in the blue. The blue primary now matches the LCD3090 and lies outside the sRGB/AdobeRGB gamut. This allows much more saturated blues to be displayed.
2. The contrast ratio is increased to 1000:1
3. The maximum luminance is reduced slightly to 320 cd/m^2
4. The OSD has a new function that makes it much easier to quickly switch between color modes such as sRGB and Programmable.
I would be really curious to know whether the humm has been fixed as well. thats the only reason I sent my 2690 v1 back. otherwise it was a great monitor.hmm perphaps they managed to get rid of the humm from the display ?
Wow, a second version already?
the v1 2690 is 2 years old, see the date of the official thread: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1095840
My apologies, I was thinking of the wrong monitor for some reason.. the 24WMGX3.
Well well well. The great Will Hollingworth of NEC America is a n00bie.It's basically a shortcut available on the OSD that will let you switch color modes in two button presses instead of having to go through the menu structure.
its using the updated LGP 26" LCD madule, the old one is end of life. The major difference is the contrast ratio and speed of the panel.
Bad news.

It looks like the NEC 2690WUXi2 lacks one of the fundamental features of the NEC 2690WUXi.
The newer does not mean the better.
Hurry up to get the "older" 2690 while available.
Unfortunately the cheapness of LCD will slow adoption/investment in other technology.
