    Hmmmm $379 in the US and expected to be $600 here. Is that down to import duties and US prices being quoted before sales tax?

    I'm guessing this is going to be a TN panel at this price.

    Where do you get $600 from, or is that just a typo?

    £250 is about $495 at todays middle market rate.

    £375 is about £189, so it is only £61 more in the UK. not that bad considering the higher taxes and costs of doing business.

    Looking at its rated specs Id say its TN, 5ms shouts Dell TN to me as does the relatively average 1000:1 contrast ratio
