Dell 2001fp, 2005fpw $507, Dell 1905fp $368, and more...pretty hot!

And will easily retail for about $1000. So, just buy two 2005FPW's and you'll be better off.
Here was my breakdown:
Sub-total $506.75
Shipping $14.00
Estimate Shipping and Tax
Shipping Discount -$14.00
Tax $0.00
Total Price $506.75
Since I already have one, my total for two would be $1013.50. Think of that compared to only one 2405FPW, which after some research, might actually be over $1200 now. You're desktop real estate may be the only reason I see somone wanting the 2405FPW, otherwise its strictly for envy. ;-)
The two 2005FPW would be a lot more pixels and a less costly than one 2405FPW.
Just throwing ideas out there.

I stayed home, and got my 2001FP delivered. It looks great!Originally posted by: Trashman
Yep, ya gotta learn to butter the muffin, my better half will be getting my Dell 1800FP when my 2005FPW ever gets here......missed that dam UPS guy again....i'm afraid to think what that monitor is going through now, i think i'll call and pick it up myself.
Hard to belive, $507 delivered minus the big fat $10 ebates check!
Is there an easy way to check for dead or stuck pixels?
Thanks,

I got my 2001FP yesterday, one stuck pixel (red). It is in the top middle, near the address bar. It sucks, but not that big of a deal. It is certainly better than 2 or 3.
Nice monitor, It looks great, and I'm on an analog output which supposedly looks horrible. Since that makes a good excuse to get a new card with a DVI output, it'll give me a good reason to justify a 6800GT purchase. Has anyone gone from analog to DVI on a monitor like the 2001FP or 2005FPW? Any noticeable differences?

Does anyone see a problem with the 1680x1050 resolution, or even 1600x1200 resolution of the 2001FP models as far as games go? I mean, i'm sure 6 months from now I won't be able to run the latest games at that high of a resolution(without upgrading again of course), so for those that have the 200x models, how bad does it look below native res? I'm just asking because I can't decide between the 2005FPW or the 1905FP. By the way, does the deal end today(2/23)???
I just got mine about an hour ago and I can't believe how nice it is. Soon as I got it up and running I played some CS:S and a few minutes of HL2 and I can not get over how awesome the wide screen is for those two games. I hear not all games support it, but I only have a few games I like, so as long as these two, Farcry, and Raven Shield support it I will be fine.
I can't get over how clear the text is!!!
Mine arrived with no dead pixels, and is a great addition to my computer. I switched from dual 19" NEC 991 CRTs, so I had high standards going in and honestly didn't want to change, but space restrictions made me and I am 110% blown away with the 2005. Now I can't wait to get a second!! That gives me a reason to upgrade my video card to one with dual DVI outputs.

the actual dimensions of the screen are somethig like 10.?" tall by 17.? inches wide. About as tall as a 17" LCD (19"crt) and very wide 😉
Quit asking questions, just get it if its in your budget. It is great!!!! As stated above, I moved from very nice dual 19" CRTs and I can't get over how nice this monitor is. It is as tall as my 19" CRT was and about 2/3s as wide as the two of them, so it's a little less real estate, but it won't be long until I have two of these!!!
