Below is a quick comparison to back up my comment about the 2001FP being a better monitor on paper. It is mostly based on aspect ratios. The 2001FP has more pixels / screen real estate -- so given the native resolutions, the 2001FP will do a boxed standard 16:10 AR better than the 2005FPW do a boxed standard 4:3.


2001FP:
Dimensions (HxWxD): 18" x 17.6" x 9.67"
Native Resolution: 1600x1200 @ 60 Hz (1,920,000 pixels)
Contrast ratio 400:1
Luminance output 250 cd/m ²(typ)
Response Time 16ms typical
Viewing angle +/- 88° (vertical) typ, +/- 88° (horizontal) typ

2005FPW:
Dimensions (HxWxD): 15.3" x 18.6" x 9"
Native Resolution: 1680 x 1050 @ 60Hz (1,764,000 pixels)
Contrast Ratio: 600:1
Brightness (typical): 300cd/m2
Response Time (typical): 12ms grey-to-grey, 16ms black-to-white
Horizontal/Vertical Viewing Angle (typical): +/-90°

Wide Screen LCD would be sweet.
If it comes out after I receive mine and is within return period, i'll try and have them swap.

I never got the extension number of the rep I talked to. However, I imagine that almost any rep would match the small business price. Getting someone to match the price AND use the bigbucks coupon on the other hand, that would be hard. My rep couldn't make that happen. If you have the $30 off BB coupon, PMing to small business only saves about $9 to begin with.

Right now (1:24 AM EST) there's a $30 stackable coupon. So you can get a 2001FP for $639 - $30 = $609 + tax w/free shipping.

I ordered mine about two weeks ago. Got it in 6 business days due to the carrier not delivering on Saturday. This monitor is truly incredible. Short of spending at least $1200 nothing comes close. The screen size is great and the colors are very vibrant. I have played several of my games on it. It is great for games or anything for that matter. It is a super deal if you need a monitor. This is the next level in displays. Mine is absolutely perfect. I'm excited to use my computer again.
