Large, high-resolution monitor recommendations?

Hi folks.

I'm looking for recommendations for large, high-resolution LCD monitors and wondered if anyone is plugging the gap between the moderate high-res ones (e.g. 23/24" 1920x1200) and the 30" ones (2560x1600).

Is there any such thing? This is for development work but the budget doesn't currently spring for a 30".

Thanks!

is really, really nice. If you find a good sale you can probably have it for around $800-$850. There are probably similar resolution panels for a lower price, but they won't look as good.

You might wait till next week (June 7--11) to see if Apple announces a new 27" LCD to match their larger iMac.

If they do, it'll have the same resolution as the great-sounding Dell mentioned by the OP, but it'll also probably actually look good. ;-)

Hanns.G's are always very, very reasonable -- I picked up 2 x 1920x1200 (if memory serves) 28.5" Hanns.G from Best Buy last year at about 399 each. Ridiculous price. They're still working nicely too. I think you can still get them around.
