is it possible to get the Gateway FPD2485W 24" in Malaysia?? its as cheap as dell's 2407.. plus its got no issues with the component input

bout rm3100 to 3300..
cheapest rm3099 if im not mistaken.. cant remember whr thou..

1st make sure u get the latest revision.. rev 04 or at least rev 03
i knw one of the 'addition' in the rev 04 is 1:1 mapping for 1600*1200 res.. meaning the res wont b strectched to full screen..
dunno bout the rest though..

2nd after u buy, go to this site n do wat they tel u :-

i doubt tats going 2 b solved as they would hav done it along wif that 1:1 fix if it was possible with the current production line(2407)..

i would expect the next production line, 2409 maybe, to solve all probs..
then again god knws when tats gonna come out

nways i think turning the lcd on and off once shouldnt b much of a hassle..
sumting i can live with..

nw i just hav 2 wait for another week for the price 2 drop 2 rm2350

any1 knw wats the cheapest price in lowyat for the benq FP241W lcd (24")?

cheapest i knw is frm viewnet for rm2950.. bt u might wan 2 hold on for now as the models they have dont support 1:1 mapping..

im in the process of finding out whether benq malaysia is able 2 perform a firmware upgrade or nt..

im looking forward to buying the benq fp241w with the new firmware.. meaning its a december onwards production..

so if any of u happen 2 hear bout it please do mention it here.. thank u..

latest news on the dell fpw2407..
the latest revision a04 is available in malaysia BUT so is the a03..
simply put its a toss of a coin as to whether u get an a03 or a04..
to make tings worse, u cant specifically ask for an a04.. too bad

just purchased the benq fp241w..
wat do i think of it?
flawless.. much better than wat i had anticipated..
i must admit i wasnt 2 happy 2 cash out rm2899 for it bt nw tat is the least of my concern..
tis is definately one of my most valueable purchases
