is there a low priced/value LCD with a resolution higher than 2048x1152?

[exia]

im currently using a samsung 23" lcd with 2048x1152, i paid $200 for it a couple of months ago. it seems the next step up (in resolution) would be 2560x1600 but i only see 30" LCDs that have that res and they are about $1000 or more for one (b/c they are IPS panels i presume).

going from $200 to $1000 for a LCD seems a bit much. is there anything else out on the market that can fill the gap at a higher resolution than current LCD? will there be new LCDs with more resolutions to choose from?

To your last question, sure, but within two months?

Are you looking for 1200p?

There's the new 27" iMac with 2560 x 1440 res. Unfortunately no other monitors have that res at the moment, but I think we'll see something by CES from the likes of Dell. Just don't expect it to be cheap at launch.

im already at 1152p, i wouldn't mind going a bit over 1200p for an upgrade, perhaps 1440 or 1600 vertical pixels, more would even be better

i sure hope something comes out

Only thing I can suggest is to watch Dell's Outlet Store and see if you can catch a refurb. Otherwise, no there is not anything less than $1000 for what you seek and there won't be for a very long time.

Resolutions above 2048x1152 are still most definitely enthusiast/professional.

Personally I'm surprised that the prices on some resolutions above 1080p have dropped so much they are now also mainstream.

Not exactly cheap, but it's a step up from 1152.

I want an OLED so bad.

I take it you have this one:

Its still $199 - looks like a great deal and you'd be hard pressed to find anything that will give you the same bang for buck. I think I'll [ick up one of these. I've been working on a 28" Hanns-G monitor at 1920 x 1200. This monitor was fine with Windows XP, but look like crap with Windows 7. The reason is all the cleartype in Windows 7, and I haven't found a way to completely remove it. Windows 7 looks great on my 24" Soyo, which has smaller pixels. You need a high pixel density for clear type to really look good - IMO.
