Are these monitors that you can find in stores in Toronto for under $300 with 16ms refresh rate good enough for regular use (and NO gaming, well maybe some minor gaming like civilizaiton or Baldur's Gate)?

I was advised by a good source to NOT buy any LCD for a few months as a 'new' tech will be released to public soon and cause prices to drop signifigantly. I was looking myself, now i'm just waiting.

It doesn't work like that. Refresh rate & response time are independent.

it's fps not Hz, LCDs don't have refresh rates.

I believe you're referring to OLEDs. Chances are they won't be released until at least 3rd quarter (fall). If that's fine with you, I'd wait it out..

However keep in mind if the technology works well, OLEDs will be superior to LCDs in nearly every aspect.
