demonachizer,

Cancel it. There will not be another revision of this monitor to address the ghosting perception.

Hi ChrisM, I was about to order a 2407WFPHC. So is there a new 24" model coming out soon? How long do I need to wait? Thx!

That's no problem for us. We'll be using this for Engineering CAD work so we don;t need all the extras. Just a high quality screen - true colors, good contract, no flicker, fading or ghosting and fast response time. Since I've just now joined the Dell forums,I don't know what the policy is for you to answer questions like this, but do you think this new model is suitable for CAD work? If you can't make recommendations, I understand. Thx again!

BillNotWilliam,

The entry level E248WFP is out. Different panel (TN). Better for games but it only has DVI and VGA ports. No ghosting.

BillNotWilliam,

The biggest difference would be the viewing angle. If you have applications where multiple people will be viewing, the wider viewing angle of the performance 2407WFP-HC would be my choice. If not, my choice would be the E248WFP.

E248WFP -
Viewing angle +/- 80° (vertical) typ, +/- 80° (horizontal) typ

2407WFP-HC -
Viewing angle +/- 89° (vertical) typ, +/- 89° (horizontal) typ

Ya, I saw that difference in viewing angle but since this will be used for 3-D CAD design, where the engineer will be turning and moving 3-D shapes, I think I'm better off not taking the chance of getting a 2407WFP-HC that may exhibit the ghosting problem. Thanks a lot - you've been a great help!
