equivalent to 2405FP

Well. In a fit of rage someone broke my beautiful Dell 2405FP :(

I loved it. Watched TV on the PictureInPicture...I used it as a secondary peripheral monitor for my XPS....oh and the GAMING. Loved it. But it is totally broken now, huge cracks through it. Noone deserves this! But anyway... somebody is so sorry now that they are willing to replace it. Who woulda thunk? So I was hoping someone here might be able to recommend a monitor that is equal or better than that one. Would I be looking at the 2407? I've heard that some things dont work as well on this monitor as they did on the 2405? Maybe I should look at other brands? Any recommendations? I just want something that is about the same size...and equal or better quality.


Thanks!!

    xopos,

    I bought the 2407WFP. Go here to see my review. I use it for work stuff and for PC games (Halflife 2, Doom 3, etc.), and my Xbox 360.

    OK thanks, does the picture in picture work on it? I've just heard it doesn't work as well as the 2405 quite a bit.

    the 2405 had a better image
    - the 2407 (even latest A03 versions) seem to have banding issues in colour gradients.
