It's in Danish but the specs speak a universal language. Several really attractive panels to come, incl. a 6 ms g2g 23" widescreen and 20.1" 8 ms g2g 4:3 panel. Some tweaks and manufacturers' modifications are certainly possible, as NEC shows with its new widescreen which seems to use an 8 ms g2g panel but is rated 6 ms by NEC.

The new panels look like a compromise of decent contrast, great viewing angles and color typical for IPS with good, gaming-capable response times.

Firingsquad is going to publish a potentially interesting review of several good gaming monitors with HDCP support next week:

1. Gateway FPD2185W
2. HP f2105
3. NEC MultiSync 20WMGX2
4. Samsung SyncMaster 244T
5. Viewsonic VP2330wb

A potentially interesting comparison since it features the new versions of non-TN panels: 8 ms P-MVA, 6 ms S-PVA and 6 ms S-IPS.

Let's see if they mention if any of them have latency issues between user input and actual response on screen. (That HP model did for me in CompUSA.)

Heh, then I guess we can add this monitor to the unofficial list of laggers:

- HP F2105 (21" ws 8 ms S-PVA)
- Samsung 244T (24" ws 6 ms S-PVA)
- Dell 2405FPW (24" ws 12 ms S-PVA)
- Samsung 214T (21" 8 ms S-PVA)
- ViewSonic VP2030B (20" 8 ms P-MVA)
