I've owned one of these beauties for 1.5 months (not from take2 since they didn't have it on the site yet) or so and I have to say, this is the best buy ever! Sure, it's a tad expensive, but it truly is a quality monitor! I upgraded from a 2233GW and I wasn't expecting it to be a huge upgrade, but it certainly was! Beautiful whites and blacks thanks to the LED backlighting is just amazing. Gotta love a proper contrast ratio!

If you're into adjusting your gamma, contrast and brightness to perfection, you'll find it to be WAY easier with this monitor as its RGB colours are very accurate and the high contrast ratio helps a lot! Lots of gradual shades of grey etc.

A great buy, wish I could afford another one!

PS: the monitor sure is "finger slim" as advertised! Very stylish too
PPS: it uses a small external powersupply and really isn't something to be worried about, especially since this monitor is very power efficient! The powersupply's max output it 36W (12V x 3A) and it stays below 30C as far as I can tell from my experience.
