You bought it, keep it.

there is such a thing as buyer's remorse

I, for one, loathe buying schtuff. I'd rather not have something than be dissapointed in it and the risks of that are high so I research the poop out of it to learn the inevitable flaws in advance; hence usually no surprises nor reason to return.

I'm the same way. I can walk into a store and piss my friends off because I have trouble buying stuff. Without really researching a product, I have trouble making decisions.

Yeah, but you have to have a dual link card, and you're not going to be able to use anything but DVI on it.

OP, if you can afford it and want it, then I say go for it, it should be a very nice display. If it is just an impulse buy, then I'd cancel if you can, think about it some more and then see if it really is what you'd want (make a list of what else you could buy with that same money and see what you'd get the most enjoyment/use out of).

I too research stuff in depth, but I also end up buying and selling things a lot (basically I try it out for a while, if I don't like it, I sell it and move on). My habits seem to bother people (in the console forum I've been called stupid since I've bought and sold a 360 3 separate times), but it works great for me and actually helps me figure out what are things I would consider keeping and not.
