Seriously, Dell...some of us actually use our monitors for stuff other than watching videos and need height as well as width.]]>Jan 8th 2009 4:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/
Looking to move my 2001FP to a secondary screen and get some new widescreen Dell LCD with the same height in pixels. It'd be even better if pixel density was the same so they actually looked alright next to each other.]]>Jan 8th 2009 4:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 7:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 9th 2009 1:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/
No mention of viewing angles. Most likely a TN panel.

Grrr.
Crap.]]>Jan 8th 2009 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 5:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 9th 2009 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/I mean, the cheapest consumer led monitor whas the 24" apple cinema display, and that costs 900 usd.
For non-graphical work, a TN panel is good enough.

if i'm wrong, please correct me.

For those complaining about widescreens they are the format that matches more efficiently with human sight.]]>Jan 8th 2009 4:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/
They're pushing 1920 x 1080 because its cheaper to produce (more panels can be cut at once in comparison to 1920 x 1200) and it falls in line with consumer HDTVs, which makes it easier to market to people who do nothing but watch movies and play console games with their monitors. For everyone else, all it means is a loss of vertical pixels, which sucks.

As Bit-Tech showed with their review of the Viewsonic VLED221wm, LED backlighting does nothing to improve picture quality or backlight bleed, all it has to offer is longevity. At $359, the G2410 is too expensive for a TN monitor and has a piss poor suite of inputs. 1 x DVI-D and 1 x VGA is pathetic. TNs may lack picture quality, but their cheap price means you can pack in features while still keeping it affordable. These models fail to take advantage of that.]]>Jan 8th 2009 9:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/You have limited vertical viewing and very wide horizontal viewing. vertical viewing is limited by brows and cheeks whereas horizontal viewing you can see all the way to a little behind you. That is without moving your eyes. You could have wraparound monitors and see it all.

Admittedly, not so efficient for things like spreadsheets. For documents you can have pages side by side. ]]>Jan 9th 2009 12:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 4:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 5:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/
I'm assuming you mean "comparable LCDs", right?]]>Jan 8th 2009 5:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/
Put is this way. CCFL + PVA or S-IPS is far, far preferable.]]>Jan 8th 2009 5:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 6:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/Jan 8th 2009 5:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/08/dell-previews-new-g-series-monitors/
