QUOTE I just got my SE198WFP this afternoon. No regrets, the screen looks great to me. When did you order the LCD(SE198WFP)? I have placed an order on July 3rd but till now i still didnt receive it. Call them on last thursday, but no positive respond as they keep saying my order has been realeased to manufacturing department.Then i asked for cancellation. They refused it and promise to send my LCD next week. Hope they get it right this time.

I think you will have a nice surprise like me jumping from 17" to 22". Enjoy your LCD when it arrives...

how would it feel when shifting from 17" LCD to 22" Wide? anyway 17" is either font too small or left with lesser workspace after adjusted font dpi for those who own a 22" wide, would u upgrade to 24" or 27" in the future if those sizes become very cheaper than now ?

My 2407WFP-HC arrived!!! it only takes 2 1/2 days!!
I already assemble it to the stand but haven't plug it in yet.
Have to go to LY to buy an AVR. My PKE AVR was already dead last month (after 10 years). Hope for temporary period only. Gonna get a descent UPS after this.
17crt -> 24wlcd . hurrahh!!!

That's normal human reaction I guess, the bigger you go, you won't go back to smaller screen. Right now I stopped at 30", can't go any bigger anymore.

Got my 2407WFP-HC yesterday . The Box!  Opening...  The rather intimidating stand.  It rises...  Secks.  I'll take some pictures of it switched on when I get a decent camera, the above are snapped with my phone, not very good.

It took 5 days for my order (i'm on the 12 months installment plan though). Why do you need an AVR for the LCD? Is it a must? Bryan, Congrats to you too

Yeah Bryan! same packaging! But I wonder why it's written as 2407WFPb at the back? Is it normal? No indication of HC on the nameplate? mine  I'm soo happy today. Been waiting for this for quite sometime. Added on July 14, 2007, 12:46 pmTheGone.. thanks! To regulate the voltage. Use it for pc/monitors to avoid from the effect of power surge in case there's thunderstorm or instability of the electrical power supplied.

Wow, congrats guys, it looks exactly the same to my 2007WFP except for the size (from the outlook of course!)  By the way, regarding my question on how to set the resolution to 1280X800 or 1440X900 instead of native 1680X1050, no one hav any idea?  *I'm using DVI input.

jimbet1337,
Yah, it doesn't have the HC at the back. But if you access the display settings menu, you can see the model number there.

I think they have a stock shortage for this particular model. You can try asking them for some freebies if they can't give you a good estimate of the delivery date.

Hey bryan I see a rather worse for wear looking copy of A Game of Thrones on your bedside table. Best book ever.  Yeah I just wanted you brand new HC owners to know that I hate you all. If only I had waited a few more months.... Oh well, think if I return my old 2407 to Dell I'll get a HC one back?

wooh grats B. seems the HC version looks exactly the same as mine. Lets hope the panel's performance is much better than mine.
The feeling's the same Foogray. T_T anyone wants to buy a 24" monitor?
