I just wait for it to be available in Europe and hope, that the PQ is good. Maybe other companies soon will have such monitors?
The advantage when compared with a TV is:
- less energy consumption
- no problems with resolution and frequency
- FullHD for cheap
- faster to turn on (I hope) |
What's missing from the spec is if the device is capable of operating at 50 Hz. This is one of the main differences between TVs and computer monitors. Most computer LCDs only operate at 60 Hz which makes it impossible to get smooth motion on PAL sources. Important at least in PAL land.
