who knows how much better this will be compared to 16ms

Well, my instinctive calculatory mind swiftly reports back to me... 16/8=2. Common sense tells me that even if this performs anywhere close to twice as fast as current 16ms panels, it will have a piss poor viewing angle and a color range of about 5. Red, blue, green, white, and light gray.

Half the time the response time is worse than the 20ms Hydis panel: http://graphics.tomshardware.c.../20041015/benq-03.html

This ISO standard for response times is bullshit and needs to be replaced. Now they are creating panels that only improve in black/white transitions so they can slap a better rating on it.

It's more like 33% of the time (for being a bit slower than the 20ms Hydis) only but, yeah, the ISO standard does leave a lot to interpretation, and response time should definately be viewed as a "peak" rating.

Also, what is up with BenQ's insistance of putting that moronic bright, huge blue LED in the middle of the panel? On my Samsung 710T, it's a tiny spec of green in the corner (as on most Samsungs), but Benq puts it right in your face.

That led isn't bright and doesn't distract, In fact I think it is much better than the little very bright green led in my old Hyunday TFT.
