That would be mint although I`m not a big fan of built in speakers.
That's a fashion piece, unfortunately with the price to match.
Absolutely stunning though. Just... absolutely stunning.
I'm unaware of anything similar being launched by other companies with the glass surround. It looks sweet! I think they have got the price a bit wrong though despite the really good looks.
by the sounds of the spec of the monitor it is a TN panel?
It looks very nice
I thought Dell were one on the backers of the display port interface, supprised it's not on this monitor.
From what I heard display port is still a few months away from being available.
Also it prolly needs a different chipset on board and with this panel being so slim they prolly want to keep size down

This display is not intended to be purchased by technically informed people such as ourselves, who read and compare specs. It is intended for the reception desk or the CEO's desk at blue chip corporate offices. And for wealthy individuals for whom money is no object.
As far as I can tell the spec is inferior to a normal Dell display. It is a bit like comparing a Vertu with a Nokia. The Vertu costs 10 times as much, has fewer features, but is beautiful, and looks expensive, which some of the time is the most important feature.

The page it back up now!
Article updated:
*UPDATE*
The Dell Crystal is now official as the launch page has, well, re-launched over at Dell Crystal 22-Inch Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor
An official announcement is also available on the Direct2Dell blog.
We all know that Dell will plumpet the price on this when it launches properly.
They always quote high prices and you can get things a little later - cheaper.
It's a shame it doesn't have Display port or 1080p support
Dell have confirmed on its official blog that it does indeed feature Displayport. Come on DR, order one, you know you wanna!
