Not sure if it is a S-IPS or a S-PVA panel yet... my guess : S-PVA

Looks like they are using up the spare 1000's of unused 2407wfp-hc chassis on this model :rofl:

I just hope it does 1080p via component (edit : YES), has a half decent scaler chip and is not beset with the 2407wfp-hc's issues. Fingers crossed!

might look into for my April quartley upgrade

Do they finally support PiP w/ DVI + VGA ?

[MuffinFlavored]

I might purchase this, so I can run my Xbox 360 on a screen better than 55" 640x480.

I would also get a Sparkle 8800GT DisplayPort card to go with it!
Very nice!

says in the manual that (button) "2 Picture In Picture (PIP)/Picture By Picture (PBP) Select"


Soooo I guess so :)

[Biker]

what is display port?

Displayport is being lauded as the "new connectivity digital standard for the modern age"... *yawn*


Need a review of the input lag too...

I couldn't agree more!


No news as to panel yet..... watch this space! :)

Do they finally support PiP w/ DVI + VGA ?

Going by the 3008wfp review + the manual I think so - the only limitation is you cannot PIP / PBP a digital source with another digital source. Digital and analog together or analog + analog should be fine.
