During the NAB 2008 conference, Panasonic introduced the BT-LH1760 production LCD monitor. Although the size is diminutive compared to regular LCD monitors that have been popping out lately, the performance specifications sure does not disappoint. Panasonic is putting its BT-LH1760 performance up against those of CRT’s. This is the first time in a long time since I have seen a small 17″ LCD monitor sporting an IPS LCD panel. And I’m quite excited.

Dell’s 3008WFP 30″ LCD monitor sports a LG Display supplied S-IPS panel. The S-IPS panel that is inside Apple’s 30″ was specially developed by using a unique copper-bus design that took a lot of engineering work. The copper-bus enables Apple’s 30″ to run flicker-free at 2560 x 1600 at 60Hz on a huge 30″ screen. I am not sure if Dell uses the same LCD panel on its 3008WFP, which has a wider color gamut and a better contrast ratio.
