I agree - go with the Samsung touch of color series; great contrast ratio, HDMI, DVI, HDTV, plus a 3 year warranty, 5ms response time. I picked up one for cheap and wish I would have bought two. Listed at $300 on NewEgg.
I completely agree. I have the 22" version and if I didn't already have 22" HP w2207h (another good answer for this question but alas its VGA/HDMI not DVI/HDMI) it would make a great monitor
I have the T260HD (The 26" Version) and I second this series of monitors. 2 HDMI ports, DVI, VGA, Speakers, 1900x1200 (maybe higher) resolution, and ASTC Tuner.
i have this monitor as well, got it for around 50 bucks. But i actually like it a lot, the one thing that is bugging me is that when you're running an hdmi into it, and its inputing DTS audio, it wont output DTS through the optical out, just dobly digital. sucky
I have the T220HD wonderful monitor/tv/screen.... Has everything. Plus I might make you a deal on mine because I wish I had something with vesa mounts so I could use it vertically..... But other than that I love it.
Agreed, just picked up a T220HD myself for the sake of hooking up my 360 and MacBook. It has the added bonus of a coax input which was the icing on the cake for me.
I have the 26 inch version of this one ... 2 HDMI inputs, coax input, component, DVI, super, plus audio out (headphone). And the built-in DVT tuner is a REALLY GOOD DVT tuner. It changes channels fast, and has an incredible picture thanks to the high resolution. It's 16x10 but has a multitude of screen sizing options that will make any picture look good. The only caveats might be the non-VESA mounting, and relatively weak speakers. I'm using it with a Logitech 5.1 surround, so audio is no big deal - and it's actually nice to have the option of the "lighter" monitor speakers when I'm on late-night. The on-screen menu system makes sense and has plenty of options, and the remote is a Samsung standard - so you could replace it with another of Sammy's TV remotes if you lose it. It's my favorite monitor I've ever owned.
The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.

Exactly!
I got this because it's got a digital tuner built in, and has both DVI and HDMI.
I agree I just bought the T240HD about 2 weeks ago and it has been heaven for my PC and PS3. I definitely give it an A+ FTW!
