I think Dell fixed it with some firmware update (factory installed) so if you have any problems you should try to pressure them to replace it for you. Thanks Matthew,

Just got the monitor this morning, Rev A00. Too soon for a conclusive opinion, and I haven't tried a DVI-D connection yet, but I can say I'm generally pleased. Connected via RGB to a LaVie notebook running at 1920x1200, it seems nice to my untrained eye. Brightness may be inconsistent across the screen, though, and maybe there's a single dead pixel. I'll follow up later after checking it under different conditions. Wonderful for this price, in any case -- thanks again for the tip. Can't wait to use it when I finally get a new computer (Conroe, anyone?), but that will be later this year, well after any return period anyway. Hey Ian. Just got the monitor this morning, Rev A00.

Interesting to see that the new price is Y95,800. It's slightly less tempting at 20% more than the offer price. :( Thanks :) 4 weeks ain’t too bad when you consider it isn’t even up on the main US site.

By the way, Dell says it won't be delivered for four weeks. (That's fine with us because we're moving, anyway.) Thanks again. Sure, I’d be glad to share my reactions after using the monitor.
