NEC intros three new LCD displays Stateside

It looks like those three new NEC monitors we mentioned a few days ago are making their way over to the States, with prices, release dates... you know, the whole shebang. Now slightly redubbed the ASLCD174WXM, ASLCD194WXM, and ASLCD224WXM, the displays pack many of the same features, though they differ ever-so-slightly where it counts. The 17- and 19-inch models feature a 1440 x 900 resolution, with 800:1 and 1000:1 contrast ratios, while the 22-inch version sports a 1680 x 1050 resolution with a 900:1 contrast ratio. All three models use the company's Ambix dual-input technology, NEC's ECO Mode low-power settings, and include built-in speakers. The monitors will be available in March, with prices ranging from $209.99 for the ASLCD174WXM, to $229.99 for the ASLCD194WXM, and $329.99 for the ASLCD224WXM.

The base stand looks like a fat behind. The base stand just make it look bad.

I love NEC monitors, but why are they including speakers? Monitor speakers are always crappy and only add to the price. Is quality not enough for NEC to differentiate themself from the low-end no-name manufacturers?
