NEC's LCD2070WNX 20-inch widescreen

Ah yes, yet another 20-inch widescreen display. Didn't NEC tell the peeps behind their new LCD2070WNX that 22-inch is totally what's in this season? Well, if you're not ready to graduate to the 24-incher (you know which one we're talking about), and don't mind a bit of corporate eye-soreness, NEC's latest Multisync features a USB 2.0 hub, height adjustment (unlike the LCD20WGX), NaViSet software controls, the usual 1680 x 1050 resolution, and Ambix, their oblique and unnecessary term for DVI, VGA, and composite inputs. You can expect to pick one up for $450 or less, which is -- like everything else about this monitor -- about on par.

If none of these 20+ inch widescreen monitors support HDCP, then they're pretty worthless if you want to view any hi-def content from a Blu-Ray or HD DVD once they start using the constraint token.

Please correct the "you know which one" link. It is a URL searching for 2407wfp instead of 2407fpw. I ordered my 2407fpw yesterday!

Don't worry about HDCP for now, it seems like it's not going to be a part of first gen Blu-ray or HD-DVD (see other articles on engadget for details). I bought a nice LCD/TV from Dell a couple years ago and it supports HDCP over DVI, which I needed to be able to watch HDTV from my cable box. HDCP has already been cracked though and you can get HDCP => regular DVI conversion boxes, so because of that and reasons above, you won't even need to do anything illegal for a while. By the time HDCP is a REAL requirement, most of us will have the ports.

@ iNDi (#2)
Dell probably renamed their monitors. When they were announced, they used "WFP". Now, they seem to be using "FPW", just like their predecessors.

Hmm... strange....
On Dell's Home & Office site, they use "WFP", while on the Small Business site, they use "FPW".

Our techs are still trying to get a driver for the Multisync LCD 2070WNX. No luck so far. Still awaiting info from NEC.
