Strengths: Great picture quality!! Lots of inputs!! No defects!! Big!! Clean loooking!!
Weaknesses: Minor issues such as: Input lag in menus. PiP can only do Digital to Analog (ex DVD/HDMI to Composite/S-video).
Summary: I received the Sept 2007 built (latest) which resolved the 1:1 pixel mapping and over scan issues. This is a great product for anyone looking for a 24" monitor. Although a bit on the expensive side, its highly worth it and you will not regret the purchase.

Strengths: great picture, many connections
Weaknesses: 1:1 pixel mapping problems, blackout problems
Summary: This monitor has great picture quality and as many connections as a lot of televisions. HDMI, DVI, VGA, component, composite, and I think there's an s-video back there too. I have my PS2, 360, and computer all hooked up and still have an hdmi connection for future use (along with some of the lower quality ones). If you purchase one make sure it was manufacture recently (last 4 months is probably safe) so you have the latest firmware. Even with the newest firmware I've heard some problems with 1:1 pixel mapping. My monitor has some problems with the monitor turning off and back on on its own every once in a while (maybe once every couple days for about a second). Its annoying and I have read some forum posts about it being even worse for some. I think its a power supply problem (in the monitor) as even the on board usb ports lose power. Overall though I would recommend it and if the price comes down I might get another.

Strengths: Excellent picture, No dead pixels
Weaknesses: Be careful with vertical position. You can easily bend the mechanism by going too far/wrong direction. The pivot software sometimes gets confused
Summary: I use it strictly as a monitor (DVI-D) for the computer, so I can't comment on using it for anything else. I probably will try out other uses in the future.The picture quality is the most important thing, so although I list some cons, they are just nits.
