Jan 4 2013 Update: For sure I’m grabbing one… Nixeus Vue 27″ S-IPS WQHD (2560×1440) LED display is available on Amazon for $639.99 today, $60.00 (9%) cheaper than the list price.
Now the only thing missing is the touch capability, or am I wishing for too much?
I like it but I need around 22″. I am looking for alternative apple cinema display nowadays just I’m wondering which monitor you have and how did you buy it so what did you think when you taking it.
