Isaiah's Tech

Besides the long name, NEC has updated their 24-inch LCD display. The LCD2490WUXi2 has a new "12-bit color lookup table for making the visible gamut much improved. Color brightness has also been significantly enhanced with 320cd/m2 brightness and a 1,000:1 static contrast ratio." This monitor has VGA and "DVI that's HDCP-encrypted" - basically meaning that it can play those downloaded iTunes movies.

This monitor will be available in Japan starting on June 3rd for around $1,431 USD. No word on the US pricing and release date yet though.
