HP 30″ Monitor

HP has introduced a 30″ competitor to the Apple Cinema Display. 2560×1600 requires two DVI inputs so your video adapter better have two DVI outputs. Pricing looks to start at less than $1,300 shipping included. Search text: HP (Hewlett-Packard) LP3065 Black 30″ Wide screen LCD Monitor.

Quoting from consumersearch.com: “…the HP LP3065 (*est. $1,360) [is] the most likely contender to knock the Samsung [Syncmaster 305T] off its stand. In its list of top 30-inch LCD monitors, PC World gives a slight edge to the HP as the best, but the models are not directly compared. Conversely, TrustedReviews prefers some features (especially connectivity) of the HP, but Emeran [claims] the Samsung still has better image quality. The Samsung also has better viewing angles. ExtremeTech reports that the HP monitor produced better test results than the older 30-inch Dell LCD monitor. Reviewer Loyd Case makes some comparisons based on now outdated prices.”
