I've been waiting for a monitor like this for awhile now. I wish it was 27" and sub-$1000, but this price might actually be worth it if the reviews are good.]]>Oct 4th 2007 10:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/
TN SUCKS!

BTW, remote is included. Another huge plus for me]]>Oct 4th 2007 10:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 10:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/
"The display’s advanced upconversion makes standard-definition video look high-definition, and will even upscale 1080p high-definition video to an astonishing 1600p."

That is a first for monitors.

But it sounds like a Samsung S-PVA panel.]]>Oct 4th 2007 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/
I do like the Gateway One though and am thinking of buying one as a guest PC.]]>Oct 4th 2007 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 11:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/
I never thought I'd buy a Gateway product...but this one looks decent. Have to see it up close.]]>Oct 4th 2007 12:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/
doesn't it compete directly with the 30" Cinema Display?]]>Oct 4th 2007 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 10:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/1. Its the only 30" able to connect via single-link DVI
2. It is using the Silicon Optix Realta HQV processor only found in high-end video processors, making standard-def images look nearly like HD ones
3. It actually is cool to look at. I got to see it at DigitalLife last weekend, and I wanted to buy one right there!
4. It supports movable picture-in-picture windows. No one else can do that (I'm fairly certain). I saw the guy from Gateway move a window playing an HD-DVD movie from a different video source around a computer desktop with the MOUSE. How cool is that?

It's already getting good reviews, but I can afford to wait a couple of months to buy this to replace my Dell 2405.]]>Oct 4th 2007 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/
I've been thoroughly impressed by Gateway's monitors though. I really wanted to get the 24" version, but this makes we want to get this one.]]>Oct 4th 2007 1:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/

the big question foe me would be... does it rescale dvi video signals? both the de;ll and apple displays leave games at their set resolution floating in the center of the screen (if less than 2560*1600).

if is stretches with reasonable quality, that would definitely be a win.]]>Oct 4th 2007 4:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 5:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 4th 2007 10:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/Oct 5th 2007 8:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/1) The speaker bar is included, but removable with 3 thumbscrews if you choose.
2) Dustin is correct in his post. Quad HD = 4 720P windows fit inside the resolution of 2560x1600. If 4 1080P screens would fit, Quad Full HD would be an appropriate label. Gateway is the first to offer a monitor that accepts HD sources and up-scales HD sources like 720P, 1080i & 1080P to 1600p. We even take 480i like a DVD to 1600P recreating 92% of the image in real time, scaling by doing 1024 per pixel calculations and looking up to 6 frames deep to scale cleanly. That is where the trillion operations per second come in.
3) It's a Samsung S-PVA panel at this time, but we may use other panels in the future.
4) Jeff, yes it up-scales computer images as well including both VGA, Single Link DVI, Dual Link DVI & HDMI. One of the best demos is running Bioshock off a notebook from VGA at 1024x768 and have it run beautifully full screen on the XHD3000. The image is softer due to the lower resolution, but looks great. We showed a very similar demo at Digital Life to astonished attendees. Looking forward to users buying this and posting their own success stories. Basically, you can now scale game resolutions to the best optimization of frame rate for multiplayer on the net, versus native resolution of the display. Again the Silicon Optix Realta processor running at 1 trillion operations per second is letting us do this awesome scaling. When the next high end game comes in and your computer/video card(s) can't handle native resolution at solid frame rates, just drop it down a resolution notch or two and it's really hard to tell your not running native res, but your frame rate improvement will be very noticeable. This extremely efficient scaling feature is what I believe will be the most compelling change to monitors going forward. Also this let's someone invest in a beautiful large piece of glass and it works great even on a notebook with VGA out for full screen 30" use by up-conversion of a notebooks lower supported resolution. Then, if you upgrade your computer or video cards in the future, this monitor has plenty of headroom.

I am VERY interested in this monitor, I just wish it was less than $1200 and 27"

I may end up getting this if reviews are good. This is such a gem from what I've seen so far, and I know it is EXACTLY what I've been wanting for the past year.

Thanks Gateway for stepping up and moving us forward!

He was lucky because Gateway let him do a defective exchange. I wasn't so lucky, Gateway is blaming me for this issue and refusing to take it back as defective meaning I must pay a 15% restocking fee. The tech support manager actually told me my screen was not defective just because a small circle appears whenever my subwoofer makes a sound. The funny part is the other guy's replacement monitor has the same problem. So the whole line of xhd3000s have this defect. I tried other screens in the same place as my xhd3000 and none of them experienced this issue. DO NOT BUY THIS SCREEN.]]>Oct 18th 2007 8:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/04/gateway-intros-30-inch-xhd3000-hd-lcd/http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1234459]]>Oct 30th 2007 4:29PM
