(Disregard OOS) Amazon has the DoubleSight DS-263N in stock for $760.97

Hurry, hurry.

Haven't seen the DS-263N in stock anywhere in almost a month. Amazon's got it right now for $760.97 with free shipping.

Don't know if this is the one with the polarizer or not, but given how rare the DS-263N is becoming, you may want to take your chances.

Edit Reading Amazon's Return Policy it looks like you can return monitors for any reason within thirty days for a full refund. That surely beats NewEgg's return policy on monitors. Find a single stuck pixel on the DS-263N and back it goes to Amazon for a full refund.

Edit Nevermind, it's showing up as Out of Stock. Anybody else beginning to suspect that we've seen the last of the DS-263N?

^^LOL

But seriously, what the hell is a "polarizer"?

DoubleSight was aquired by PCBANK, a Korean 3rd-party monitor manufacture, about a year ago.
The exact same monitor is being sold in Korea about $250 less($300 if sale tax is applied).

Also, a newer version has come out. It uses LG LM260WU1-SLB1 pannel and the difference is that the new one offers various input ports.

Still, DS-263N seems like the the best deal in the current U.S market and I think it might get better. What I know is that PCBANK is quite happy with the success they achived and plans to be more agressive in the U.S market.
I only hope this moves other 3rd-party manufactures from Korea to join the U.S market. I mean...for the price you pay for DS-263N in U.S, you can get 30" IPS monitor that uses the latest IPS pannel like this.

So Dell's 27" PVA panel is $799 right now, and it is 1.5" bigger... similar deal?

IIRC the Dell panel is SPVA...the Doublesight panel is IPS...which is a better compromise between pixel response and image quality.

$799 is a pretty good deal though, considering they started at over $1000

Yeah S-PVA != IPS...

 

[postmortemIA]

they are different, and S-IPS is better in many terms, and worse in few. Still - 2707 is rich in features.
