Difference In Sony Monitors?

What is the best monitor here? That all look the same, whats the differences? I'm thinking of the E440/B from Provantage for $288.91 after shipping --$50.00 🙁 -- Whats the difference between that and the G420?

E is their consumer line
G is there Pro line
F is there super pro line...

In general the G's are capable of higher resolotion, have better controls and maybe have a little deeper color.

The G series also ad a "restore" feature where (after it knows it has warmed up) it will run color tests on itself and restore itself to factory preset color settings.

The E and G are .24mm aperture grille, the F are .22mm aperture grille (shaper image on screen).

I have a G500 (21") and am quite happy with it after using it a while. It replaced a 19" G series that my dad has now.

Two friends at work have E series 21"ers, and i have played games on them pretty extensively, and my G series has better color depth, though it could have more to do with video cards than the monitors (i have an ATI 8500, they have GF3 and GF2ultra). I have also used an F520, and it had noticably better sharpness than my G500, though color was about the same (it was driven by an ATI 9700).

To me, the G series is worth the extra $ over an E series from what i have seen.
