Ebay or Craigslist. The positive of buying second-hand is you can guarantee S-IPS. I'm actually going to sell my S-IPS 2007wfp soon for something larger (not interested in multi-monitor setups).

This monitor is not for you if you want accurate 16:9 representation.

potential, are you using 1080p with 1:1 (REAL) scaling for the blu-ray? REAL at 1080p introduces banding for some reason on this monitor.

He said make him feel better about his purchase! :p Haha anyways congrats. You're buying a great monitor.

I was just compiling the complaints others have had. Yes, people have complained about the large bezel. I don't think any of said people actually owned the monitor however. You'll need an HDMI -> DVI cable to use HDMI, included with the monitor. If you want more than one digital device...

It remains to be seen. Also wide gamut. They're believed to be the same panel. That is a fair assessment from my point of view. Planar: Pros: Scaling (1:1) USB inputs Cons: No A-TW polarizer More Expensive No component input (does this really matter to anyone)...

:p I really don't think there is 1:1 mapping on this monitor. As someone posted earlier(Orange Crush?), the graphics card was putting the bars on the sides. I guess I'm not as optimistic as you.

Just got a PM from the guy over at the Canon forums, he loves the monitor:

Well, we have a few forum users who have the DS-265W, but no one has put up a comprehensive review. The DS-265W may have an A-TW polarizer which would eliminate white glow from angles. The Planar appears to have more scaling options, as it can do 1:1 pixel mapping, but degrades the image...

Sucks. And I'm assuming that "Auto" doesn't help.

Nope, definitely TN. Different viewing angle specs for Vertical, and a 2 ms response time.

What is the best place to buy this monitor, Provantage?

I don't think so, but I'm not positive.

Model number? Easiest way to see is check the viewing angle on its specs.
