I?m Seeking the Ultimate 21" Monitor under $2,000.00 U.S.
I have looked at Sony's GDM F500R ... but have read that the Eizo F980 is the superior 21? monitor for picture quality. The specs show the F980 with superior refresh rate at 1600 x 1200 @ 109 Hz (max) (2048 x 1536 @ 85 Hz addressable), and the slightly superior pitch going to the F500R ?(F980 w/ .23mm pitch ? F500R w/ .22mm pitch).

I have looked at the GDM FW900 but am primarily concerned with picture quality and refresh rates rather than the FW900?s larger size.

I have located some information/reviews on the F980:

? but information is scarce on this monitor.

Does anyone have any experience with this monitor or have viewed both the F500R and the F980?

CNET has a review on the FlexScan F980. Link

You can click on 'all users opinion' to see what they think about the monitor. People seem to love this monitor (9 out of 9 gave it a thumbs up). I think it's about as perfect as can be except for the 2K price...

Also, I don't think you'll be getting too many responses since very few can afford such luxuries.
