It's here! Just did the some pixel testing and everything looks good! Woohoo no dead pixels. I do notice a little backlight bleeding coming from the lower left hand corner, but nothing to really complain about... yet. It's only noticable on completly black screens.
Here's a link to the pixel checking program I used

Mines in transit as well. I got one for $499 returned it and got one at $380. Love the monitor. I've been using a old 15inch 1024x768 LCD in the mean time, the horror.

Already starting to wish I'd gone LCD last year when I was setting up this rig. UK prices still suck though, would have been even worse in September...

No bad pixels that I'm aware of, still need to download that "bad pixels" software to test it out.

is this 2005fpw better than 2 1800fps?

maybe i could sell my 1800fps for ~500-600 locally and get the 2005fpw :)
