What no DVI?! :eek:

Surely it will have DVI but if not.. LG's do :p

TN based. So it's a monitor that can double as a TV, but only if you sit at your desk. Why bother? :)

I have an LG 22" which does exactly this, TN based.. It's a brilliant monitor and TV and isn't even the current crop.

When I'm at my desk I can easily use the monitor with my laptop, Desktop, get freeview,use my dvd recorder, use consoles and PMP's without any real extra effort.

The question shouldn't be why bother, but why is it taking so long to catch on for we geeks :D

Just get a DVI to HDMI adaptor and then you can use a DVI connection :)

Indeed - what's the problem!? HDMI and DVI-D are electrically compatible.
