I am getting a 2005fpw for x-mas and was wondering what revision should I ask for? I want something with minimal blacklight bleeding if possible and anything else they fixed? feel free to say anything you feel like :)

edit: o ya and no dead pixels.

I heard that you can tell them what revision you want to avoid problems with dead pixels and getting refurbished monitors. maybe it was only when returning one for a 2nd but i rember people talking about it.

I had one of the first and one of the newer revisions ( A01;A02) both seem pretty similar..

It's not bad.. I personally think the black light bleed through was little overstated as i have seen plenty of other screens with a slight bleed..

Overall, nothing that concerns me, and I am pretty picky..

Pics, well I can offer this one up, but doesn't show any bleed of course :D

I have a A02. The blacklight blacklight bleeding isn't obvious, but it's definitely noticable when you put it besides a 2405fpw.

I traded my A02 June for an A02 July becuase of dead pixels, and while the AO2 June was nice, the July has perfect backlighting
