Dell UltraSharp 29" 2560x1080 U2913WM 21:9 LED Monitor $550 at Dell Business

First of all, this is a great deal and the value cannot be beat for the price, green for you OP.

However, as a 30" ultrasharp owner for almost 10 years now, I can truly say that having 1600 height makes all the difference to me... yes I do notice it a lot whenever I am forced to use "shorter" monitors at work. Also, user reviews are mixed on the performance of this unit (buzzing noises and bleeding), which might be why they are discounting it so much, so buyer beware.

And for those that think a TV is the way to go... all I can say is, find someone that has a 2560x1600 monitor and try it for a full day. Then go back to your TV and tell me that how that compares...

It has ips panel. I guess you meant 16:10 aspect ratio, which gives more work space in vertical.

This price is good! I will consider because now i can't afford this.

Debating between this or the U2711. I am waiting for another nice U2711 deal in the $650 range...

Edit: To all those comparing this with two cheaper monitors, or a TV, or some other cheaper TN panel monitor... these higher priced Dell monitors are aimed at those who needs a monitor with good performance for things like graphic design, illustration, or print work. People not doing that type of work are not looking to spend $500 on a single monitor.

That ~40% extra vertical space makes a big difference.

No man, 1080p resolution is 1920x1080. This monitor is much more significant, in a smaller surface area. So that means more pixels per inch, which mean exceptional image quality. Better than any HDTV on the market (they all stop at 1920x1080 unless you pay $20k for a 4k display). But this is not a tv, no tuner with it.
