You mean Price? I'll repeat myself, the panel is made by LG - as in LG technology. LG is well know for their research regarding better panels technology at lowers price and it's fact, that LG panels are the cheapest available cause of that, wile on the opposite part we have Hitachi with high quality components, from which results a more expensive technology and maybe that's why they offer the most expensive panels on the market. Note: - I'm talking just about "panels" not the all LCD package.

This are not the first HP monitors with H-IPS, at a little higher then 500$ HP LP2475w is already available since late 2008. The technology used wasn't even known back then, they simply call it "the NEW S-IPS". Then later they gived a new for it - "H-IPS".

The reason you see NEC with this panels, cause you might say they helped with this technology. The polarized films from the the back of LCD, is made by NEC - so called "advanced true white". And of course a NEC with this panel is at a double price, since the panel it's not the only LCD components and let's not forget the NEC brand hype, on a same page with LaCie, yet still far from EIZO.

If HP checked the effects of this news and noticed you guys think they're to cheap, they might up the price to satisfy you. They have no problem with UP-ing the prices to satisfy the customers.
