What about Dell, don't they ship to Canada?
Yeah I saw CDW has it and ship to canada , its quite expensive there.
Almost the price of a NEC well couple hunder less. So now im debating.
Wide gamut is still an issue on a Mac. Some apps like Safari and Preview are color managed for tagged images, but beyond that, the same issues exist. The Apple Cinema Displays are not wide gamut.
1. Once I properly calibrate the device (probably using a spyder or something equivalent) I should get accurate matching between my screen display and printed photo, correct? As long as it's calibrated the wide-gamut should not have a negative affect?
as long as you use color managed apps. Picasa for example and windows XP's picture viewer are not color managed. Photoshop (when set up correctly), Lightroom, and basically every app on Mac OS (Aperture, iPhoto, etc) are color managed so those apps should work fine.
Good link, Vid. Thanks for your thoughts, man.
The "white glow" is supposedly an issue when seen from angles, notably top and bottom. It's usually observed with that picture of the earth from space. IMO, if this is the only issue a monitor has, and it's not noticeable when looking dead-on, then I'm honestly not that concerned.
-S
The only ones saying this are the ones that haven't seen a monitor with the A-TW polarizer. If it's only visible at extreme angles, then why would I care about it? Unless you're sitting at least 4 feet away, it's visible even when you're sitting in front of the monitor, especially towards the corners. Of course, it's not as bad in front of the monitor as it is at an extreme angle, but there's still a visible difference. Everyone that has seen both versions of the DoubleSight agree that the one with the A-TW polarizer looks much better. Try sitting 6 feet away and notice how the contrast looks better. That's how it looks from a normal viewing distance with the A-TW polarizer.EW27 said:Its only visible at extreme viewing angles or in the very corners if you're sitting too close.

By the way, people that have gotten the DS-265W have confirmed getting ones with the A-TW polarizer, so it might still be worth considering.

So which monitor is better Picture wise , PX2611 OR the DS-263N without a polarizer.
And how does the DS-263N stand up with a Polarizer? for picture and color?
As for the DS-265W? since it has HDMI and USB labels on the back panel? Does that mean
A second batch of 265W will support HDMI and USB? could be another crap shoot in the makings.
Just a warning: watch out for CDW. On their website, they will not post if they have no availability of a monitor. I ordered this monitor last Sunday, and a representative called me monday, telling me that they were out of stock and it was on back order. The monitor is scheduled to arrive @ CDW on Monday, and I will get it around Thursday. So in other words, in 2 weeks time from the order date, I will receive this monitor.
I talked to a representative about this, and he was pretty peeved about it also. He said that support has requested that if a monitor is not available, then it be shown on the website to call for availability. He was pretty sincere about it, and the customer service has been great. Nonetheless, They are selling it for a fair amount of money, + shipping, where as other companies are selling it for less with free shipping. I'm trying to see if another retailer stocks it, and has a no hassle return policy.
QuantumPion : Did you order from the Canadain CDW? or US?
I ordered mine via the Canadain CDW about a 1 week and a half ago and
was told it woud be shipped out sometime next week .. Hopefully it does.
