The 2408WFP:
I finally moved to a 1920 by 1200 resolution LCD. Currently I'm using dual screens with my 22" 1680 by 1050 Sasmung 216BW.
First off, the color, brightness, and contrast is MUCH better on the 2408WFP. The Samsung just doesn't display as many colors, and in between shades as the 2408, and the difference is quite noticible! The 216BW has a normal 72% color gamut, and the 2408WFP has a 110% color gamut.
The vertical contrast on the samsung was awful, they reported 1000 to 1, but it just is plain bad when you are not level vertically. You also cannot tilt or do anything for that matter other than spin around the samsung, which means you need the screen at exactly eye level...
The 2408WFP has a contrast ratio of 1300 to 1 and its not a problem at all. The difference between the 300 nit britness screens and 400 nit is huge, I have the 2408WFP in the 50% range while the other can be all out, thats the closest match to the Ultrasharp. The whites are very bright and clear, and it makes the Syncmaster's whites look yellow. The tilt, height and rotation is very useful. I really like to rotate it 90* to make it tall, its great for web pages and forums!
Of course the resolution is a good reason to upgrade compared to the 22" LCDs, but what I really like in this screen is the color it can display!
I'll have to talk about the connections options another day... :)
