    lol no the greatest idea, my gf simply can't tell the difference between the color on IPS or TN if you are "upgrading" her 22" with another 22", she will probably asked you why spend the extra money on the same thing :D

    I honestly don't see anything seriously wrong from your pictures with my bare eyes, may be it's the picture quality. Try taking it with AP mode or at least focus it better. I measured mine with real hard numbers and it's no biggie, if yours really that bad then better luck next time. But...

    I have to kindly DISAGREE that you called it a "mistake" for buying the 2209wa, it's all about expectation. You don't expect Porsche quality when you're actually buying a Civic with a Civic price, and nobody is advertising the 2209wa is as good as other premium LCDs worth up to thousands...

    I tried to archive a higher Contrast Ratio with the contrast setting at 80-85, but after that it's REALLY tough to get my target color temp (6500K) right, once i got RED right, blue or green shifts, vice versa. I personally don't find Contrast ratio on this monitor a problem as well, since I...

    i think so you should really exchange it for the pixels problem, but as for why anyone would stick his head behind a monitor is beyond my imagination. :p

    if eye-strain is not an issue (1900 on a 22"), the only concern is if your graphic card will run games smoothly at that rez. As well as if movies will play smoothly without drop frame also there's quite a difference in price between both monitors

    I agree this LCD is way to bright out of the box, but is personal attack the only way you express yourself? The guy is simply showing his love on the new toy. By the way, if you are so dissatisfied with the 2209wa, you can leave the thread and you won't be missed. it's a legit 22"
