I didn't see this posted anywhere. I just recently found out that HP (
finally!) came out with a 27-inch LCD, like the Dell U2711 and Apple iMac.
H-IPS with LED backlit, 10-bit panel (over DisplayPort). No HDMI though but
it's too high-res anyhow.

(I've ordered from Cost Central in the past--they are reputable and
authorized. Some people may not like them though because of the HP TouchPad
fiasco. But same happened to pretty much every store that were selling
TouchPads.)
