Am I crazy, or did NEC and Alienware just unveil the same thing? Alienware’s original curved monitor, which we saw at CES last year, had some issues which have since been resolved, but was their hand forced by NEC’s announcement? At $8000 the NEC one isn’t going to be making into a lot of homes, but is this one any different? Well, it’s made by Ostendo and they’re launching via Dell, so it can’t be the exact same hardware, although they do share a size, resolution, brightness, and contrast. Verrry suspicious.
The differences are subtle: the Ostendo one is significantly narrower (32.5cm vs 50cm), which suggests a less-extreme curvature. Let’s hope there’s a less subtle difference in price. I’d love to get my hands on one of these, though — or maybe two.
For a full surround experience, I think you might need more then 2.
anyway, i will buy at least one, to read feeds……….write mails………..
HI THEREE WOW $8,000 FOR A 43 INCH TV FOR THAT PRICE I CAN BUY 2 1 TERABYTE SSD FROM OCZ AND ALSO HAVE ENOUGH LEFT OVER FOR A 512 GB SSD
SSD’s are a waste of money right now…
Id rather buy 3 26″ monitors for $1000 total.
