Hi
Ideally, I would love to get a flat panel monitor about 25 inches. they seem to be well into the 1000's in canadian dollors right now, which is just too high for me. Do you think that prices in LDC monitors will drop the way CRT montiors have? I have a 23'' CRT monitor right now and it is pretty cool, but i'm gonna have to give it back fairly soon. are there any new technologies coming due soon that will compete with LDC that may drive the price down some?

It's LCD, and yes, they will drop in prices. 5 years ago a 17" LCD panel went for over a thousand. Today they're around $300. 2 years ago 20" LCDs were about $1000, nowadays they're about half that.
