[yu130960]

I stopped paying attention entirely. Last three have sucked royally.

Huh... almost everything as useless as today :razz:

[bectang]

That phone ain't that bad. I remember getting similar things at 150 on sale years ago...these do have better reception that the speakerphones...

i'm just hoping there'll be some "diff. deals" since it's "business" this time...

and hopefully something better than today's !

C'mon LCDs

[voyager6868]

30" LCD - $1499 :D

[Solidus Snake]

Looks like it's up...

[LNahid2000]

Too bad there is no 19" digital display. I'm still waiting for one of those.

[zeusman]

Looks like not as crazy deals as the 30in. for $1499 that someone here predicted :lol: , but fair enough...a lot of you guys wanted LCD monitors.

Anyone planning on getting one?

[cavanagh]

These seem like pretty good deals!

[felix]

How is the E196FP 19" besides it being analog only? Does it have the same blurring problems as the 1905FP? How does it compare to the Viewsonic VX924?

[macro6]

anyone with a E196FP.. can someone give us a review of this lcd monitor.

[fitbrit]

I might have got the 19" one had I not just scored a one week old 8 ms 17" V7 monitor two days ago.

http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/7_days_savings?c=ca&cs=CABSDT1&l=en&s=bsd

yeah mee too. I wanna know if the monitor is good.. what lcd panel is being used from witch manucture.. and how much white shows up bleeding when the screen shows black on black..

[h00ch]

These don't seem like great deals to me. Sure, they're a lot cheaper than Dell's regular price, but take a look at Canada Computers price range on 17" monitors... http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProdList&cmd=pl&id=MT.899

[7jai]

how's the 19" with the analog? Maybe I should buy the 17" with Dvi?

[western]

What is dells return policy in regards to this monitor?

[dmatthew]

Crap I want a good 19" LCD with DVI!! Should I bite the bullet and get this monitor?

[lareau]

how's the 19" with the analog? Maybe I should buy the 17" with Dvi?

I was debating the same question, 19" or 17" with dvi. I was wondering what the main difference was till I read this

analog vs Digital (http://ecoustics-cnet.com.com/4520-3174_7-5136369.html?part=ecoustics-cnet)

I'm more leaning towards the 19" now.

[platinum]

Does anyone know whether the 19" uses TN+ film or PVA panel?

Interesting...i'm leaning towards the 19" now as well

I can't seem to find any reviews on the 19" that dell is selling though...anyone can either recommend or not recommend the monitor?

[kenche]

Hm... I went to the dell website, and the 19-inch lcd is gone now..

[mahjongmaniac]

wow... 19" only $300?

too bad it's only analog.... still kind of tempting tho....

[B0000rt]

DAMMNIT!

With this, I doubt they'll put the 2005FPW on sale now :(

[najibs]

DAMMNIT!

With this, I doubt they'll put the 2005FPW on sale now :(

why's that? They always put the 20-inchers on sale after the 17 and 19-inchers...be patient and they'll go on sale...towards the end of the deals days

[kingsley]

DAMMNIT!

With this, I doubt they'll put the 2005FPW on sale now :(

Nah, don't worry about it. It'll be there.

[JlF]

The E196FP uses the same TN panel as the E193FP.
For me, I will pick up 1905FP (on sale for $369 in last day deals) if not much to gaming and go for 2005FPW (for $499 in last day deals) at least if serous about gaming.

[dmatthew]

whatever - i bit the bullet and bought the 19" lol

good bang for the buck

[B0000rt]

I'll hold it to you guys ;)

[CSR]

those are some hot prices...

I thought Dell always puts two LCD sales on their dell deals. ???

[B0000rt]

I pray you're right :D

[yell0w_c0w]

The 19 inch is a good price. I'd go ultrasharp for that price.

The 17 inch... it's cold. I bought my DELL LCD from a past deal of the day for 230$.

CRTs rarely provide support for digital signals; DVI support is found primarily on LCDs. However, the advantage of digital signals for LCDs is of somewhat less importance now than it was a few years ago. Analog signal processing has improved to the point where major differences in image quality can be difficult to detect. Unless you're a pro photographer, a prepress professional, or someone else who needs superprecise, top-notch image quality, you should be fine using a CRT or an LCD on an analog signal.

[Worldy]

Any idea whose OEM productions of these DELL LCDs?

[tim-x]

Cheers to though that can get it at a lower price though of course.

I paid $549+ tax..:(

[rajeshr]

Any idea whose OEM productions of these DELL LCDs?

Most of the Dell LCD's use Samsung panels, with the exception of the 2001FP and the 2005FPW which use LG\Philips panels.

[BillCollector Bob]

just ordered the 19"...good price...thanks op

[ieatkittens]

Good price on the 19's...I'm also on the list of people hoping for a deal on the 30"...but it won't come, since they just released it.

Plus I can't buy one until I sell my two 2005fpw 20.1"'s

[madman604]

free shipping?

[kaycee8877]

went to site 10 mins ago 19" reg price was 419 (120 in savings) ... now its 399 (100 in savings)

weird

[beabroad]

what is the warranty? what is the warranty length?

[Advantage22]

It will go below 499.......eventually.

[weqa]

what is the warranty? what is the warranty length?

I remembered it is 3 years for new monitors.

[ieatkittens]

It will go below 499.......eventually.

Lots of people (wink wink) are selling them below 499 lightly used...and no tax to boot (wink wink)

[dkmwong]

i bought the 19" model in september for the same price. Good monitor.

[HeatSeeker]

Just bit the bullet on the 19" LCD. It'll compliment my 1905FP monitor for a dual monitor set up.

[dmatthew]

In 1 year or less I'll buy a 2nd LCD to do a dual monitor set up as well

lol

[DJXP]

just wondering if I buy this monitor and they have the sale on the other one, can I cancel/return without any penalty ?

[masterc]

As long is it hasn't shipped yet... during these promos it takes a few days to get the order through processing.
If it has shipped they may say you'll have to pay for return shipping and 15% restocking fee, but you should be able to waive that, especially if you're a repeat customer.

[DJXP]

thanks just purchased some :)

[mahjongmaniac]

The 17 inch... it's cold. I bought my DELL LCD from a past deal of the day for 230$.

well, if i remember correctly, this is also the EXACT same price that dell was offering during the last Dell XX days of deals.... :|

[itsyours]

Taile found a 17" Optiquest Q7b that has better specs at lower price of $227.67 at Staples.
IMO, you better buy that 17" instead of this Dell E176FP: better price, better monitor, better return policy, better brand (if I had to pick between these 2 value lines) and more OOS.

Did you do two seperate transactions?

Because when I ordered two, I only saved $100 on the first one, but not the second, so i cancelled the order.

Henry, Make two orders.

[sxz]

Wow I really hope the 2005FPW will be $499 or LESS (crossing fingers). Even if it's $499 I'm going to buy it. :-0

Also one question, seeing as it's called the Business Days of Deals: do I have to be a small business or anything to order?

[Nukey]

Hmmm. I ordered one (2005FPW) just monday at $599. I suppose I'll get the difference refunded if the price drops below that during the deals.

[RastaManMax]

They won't refund it after it's been shipped. Also, if it does go on (i'm betting it will), it will be lower than $599. I got mine almost a year ago for that price.

LEMAR

[masterc]

The 2005FPW was offered at $599 during the Boxing week deals, but A lot of people got it for $549 if you asked for a discount and quoted the $499 price during the 12 days of Dell deals before Christmas.

[bfg_16]

pretty nice deal...i guess many people are holding out for the bigger displays...

[xpat]

if the 2005fpw goes on sale for less than the $499 i paid for it i'm going to be mighty upset >:|
Cheers to though that can get it at a lower price though of course.
what's a couple dollars difference ... at least you're getting to use a nice monitor, while i'm stuck waiting for the next time it hits $499

[rahzel]

for a 19" 16:10 Viewsonic at Staples, it's only $429 minus stackable coupons.
the Viewsonic has a lower response time (8ms) and a little lower resolution... i'd rather save the $100+ and get a slightly smaller monitor.
Viewsonic 19" 16:10 (http://www.staples.ca/ENG/Catalog/cat_sku.asp?webid=627457&AffixedCode=WW)

[kingsley]

hah, go dell. I remember that montior was arond 649 before christmas.

[Edirol]

That viewsonic 19" has low viewing angles though since it uses a TN+Film panel.

I'm still waiting for a 19/20" widescreen VA/IPS panel with TRUE 16ms (or better) response times.

The only panel right now that might come close is the Belinea 102035W. Too bad there aren't any professional reviews (with response time graphs) and it's not available here in North America :(

[LanEvoVII]

does the 19inch dell have good viewing angles? Im on a 17inch benq and it's viewing angle is 140 degrees which I think it's pretty good since I can see it from all sides

[Henry Low]

Henry, Make two orders.

Thanks,

I ordered two seperate transactions.

Woohooo, cant wait to have dual 19inch monitors hooked up. now if i can just sell my 17inch dell. :)

Henry

[IndoShindo]

The 19' is a good deal but why not pay $40 more and get an Acer 1916W, same specs except its widescreen.

[doublejack]

The 19' is a good deal but why not pay $40 more and get an Acer 1916W, same specs except its widescreen.

Because there is less viewing space, as a 19" ws has the height of a 17" FS. If you don't watch movies on your panel, you may prefer 4:3.

I ordered by phone with a sales agent and he asked me if it was for my bussines and that was it. He gave me the total and it came out to $687.70

Do you know what video card will be good for 2 19"

Any current vid card should handle dual monitors.

[DJXP]

[LanEvoVII]

Mine shipped on the 12th and arrived today which is the 19th. Fast shipping, and my 19inch has no dead pixels :)

[HeatSeeker]

I also got mine today.

[western]
