Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?
I have a Samsung SyncMaster 245b, and I would recommend it to anyone.

If money is not an issue, these look great:

I'd love one. Once they go down in price.

If the prices are similar over here we are looking about £300 for a 24" model . There will be loads about this year then excellent news. I modify all my advice now and say wait for LED
EDIT From what I am reading perhaps the news is not so good. These appear to be LED backlite screens meaning you have a lower power consumption
OLED is what we are really waiting for and this is not it yet

I too have been doing some reading and it seems currently OLEd displays don't last very long....or not even as long as a normal TFT.

While OLED seems to be, on the surface, the perfect display technology, there are some problems. First of all, even though the red and green LEDs have long lifetimes of 10,000 to 40,000 hours, the blue component suffers high failure rates after about 3,000 – 5,000 hours.

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?
Well I ordered the above - got it yesterday. It's a nice monitor - fits nice on the desk, very bright, crisp, clear.
Also comes with the HAS stand (allows for up / down adjustment and piviot).
Fast delivery by eBuyer (free upgrade to a pre-12 delivery)
My old Iilyama ProLite E481S is now the primary screen for my testing PC's!

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?
I just ordered the BenQ E2400HD 24" LCD.
Read reviews all over the net before choosing and this really is a great deal. Managed to get it for £210
