Hey Tim, we were sort of all discussing this some time ago, so thanks for bringing it back to the front burner again. There are a few options like this starting to emerge, and none are terribly cheap. I think NEC and Samsung have something along these lines also. Folks were waiting/hoping to see if Apple revamped their LCD line-up and went with this LED technology. Still waiting on that.
It still raises the questions about price versus performance. I recall your needs really being high on the performance side for color matchings and things. Just wondering if you have had a chance to see/test any of these options yourself? Personally, I think the LED tech for these monitors should be outstanding. I keep holding out for a 30" solution, but just know the price is going to be steep. And, I also wonder about different levels of offerings within this tech. IOW, might there be higher and lower "grade" options, and how much difference might that make? We see that it makes a huge difference in the normal LCDs with their simple fluorescent backlight tech now. Just wondering out loud at this point.
