There is no way LG is using a Samsung panel in one of their LCDs.  They are bitter rivals in every consumer electronics category and LG has plenty of LCD production capacity with their LG.Philips venture, much like Samsung does by itself.  If this is true, then it would amount Coke using a Pepsi formulation in its sodas...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ken C.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 16th 2007 1:33AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG FlatronWide L206WU USB monitor comes to North America]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/lg-flatronwide-l206wu-usb-monitor-comes-to-north-america/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/lg-flatronwide-l206wu-usb-monitor-comes-to-north-america/</guid><description><![CDATA[nice find I didnt even notice that.

I can assure you that the lag is really low. You don't even notice the difference between a VGA connection and a USB connection. It works fine for DVD playback too (which surprised the heck out of me) but it doesn't do high-end 3D or HD video very well (frame drops). I use the Toshiba dock for business-related stuff and some lightweight 3D (Google Earth) and it's absolutely perfect.<br><br>I doubt LG are using Samsung panels since obviously other manufacturers (like Toshiba) have DisplayLink stuff but I have no idea. It seems odd.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[warpzero]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 16th 2007 6:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG FlatronWide L206WU USB monitor comes to North America]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/lg-flatronwide-l206wu-usb-monitor-comes-to-north-america/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/lg-flatronwide-l206wu-usb-monitor-comes-to-north-america/</guid><description><![CDATA[warpzero what resolution are you running on your screen connected over usb? seems to me that if you see frames dropping on hd video you would see the same on dvds?  dvds run at 30fps and hd at 24 (60?) and since the graphics card has to do the rendering, not sure why the display would make a difference unless it was simply a refresh rate limit of the monitor in general.  probably something im missing... could also be that your laptops video card struggles to render it...<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 2nd 2007 5:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG FlatronWide L206WU USB monitor comes to North America]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/lg-flatronwide-l206wu-usb-monitor-comes-to-north-america/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/lg-flatronwide-l206wu-usb-monitor-comes-to-north-america/</guid><description><![CDATA[It would be nice to see a not-so-shitty usb display.
