MaximumPC reported on a new monitor from NEC that I didn't see any mention of in the forum. Here's a snippet from the NEC website:
Here is the Maximum PC mention.
As the MSRP is expected to be about US $349 according to MaximumPC, it would seem to be in direct competition with Dell's U2412, especially based on general specs.
I'm looking to upgrade my Dell 2209WA with a 1920x1200 24" monitor and was pretty much planning on waiting for the U2412 to go on sale direct from Dell, but this monitor announcement gives me pause.
Anyone have any take on this?
The 24 NEC MultiSync EA244WMi is an LED-backlit desktop monitor ideal for corporate environments. Designed to enhance work performance, this widescreen model features IPS panel technology with wide viewing angles (178° horizontal/vertical) and ergonomic adjustability. The LED backlighting of the EA244WMi allows for a slimmer profile, lighter weight and increased power savings compared to previous generation models. ControlSync technology allows users to control up to six EA244WMi displays in a multi-monitor configuration. Upon establishing one unit as the master, users are able to control many performance attributes of the multi-monitor setup in unison through the single monitor. Smart sensing technology automatically detects your work conditions to determine the proper display brightness with ambient light and human sensors, while a comprehensive input panel, including HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI-D, VGA and 4-port USB hub, connects users to the latest peripherals and future-proofs the investment.
