I think the sale was for 26th only, but I disagree that envisions suck, at least this one doesn't. I got this monitor and it's great, for the money I've paid (assuming I get the rebates of course) it's unbelievable. No dead pixels, plenty of brightness and contrast, the text is very sharp (better than on my two-year old samsung 170 or was it 171?), no problem with auto-adjusting that so many cheap monitors have, and decent design. Picture-wise this monitor would give a run to $300-400 monitors from major brands. I had my doubts when I bought it because I very well know that when you buy a $200 LCD you never know what you get, you might get a decent monitor or you might get a piece of garbage, this one is really good.
