      This was 390 a few weeks back according to bababooey forum. Sorry Dell, try again.

      Too expensive? This is actually a pretty good price for an S-PVA panel monitor. Yeah, it may or may not have been less expensive in the past if #1 is correct.

      Stick with 24" TN panel monitors if you really think this is too expensive.

      Does Dell have a 24" IPS monitor that's somewhat affordable?

      #1 is correct, $391 about a month ago. It is a pretty good monitor, to get to the next level, in terms of image quality, you need to pay significantly more.

      $200 more for a couple of inches. Didn't we just see a 22 for 140?

      #8, I would pay anything for an additional couple of inches. That would bring my total to 3 inches.

      Dell does have a 22" e-ips for $200 or so. It's actually supposed to cost about as much as a TN to make...but I hear there are no immediate plans to come out with a bigger e-ips as they have too many/much invested in current TN panels (Kinda like drug companies will do anything in their power to PREVENT the cure for cancer and diseases as they make a killing off of drugs, literally)

      The additional $200 is not just for an extra 2". S-PVA panels are simply more expensive to manufacture than TN panels. IPS panels generally cost even more to manufacture; the exception being the e-IPS panel.

      Too expensive for a computer monitor, where you dont' need wide viewing angle. If it were meant for TV viewing too with an integrated tuner that'd be another story.

      It's not that S-PVA are more expensive to manufacture, it's that they artificially keep the price even higher than the difference in manufacturing cost.
