What kind of panel in current 2007FP?

Question

Note: this is about the 2007FP not WFP. I am interested in the 1600x1200 model. Originally they were LG IPS screens, but when I bought mine Dell had switched to Samsung PVA. So I got 3 things I didn't want banding/blurring and PVA screen. I returned it. Anyone get a recent 2007FP and care to sare the date and location from the back (Ex June 2006 Mexico) and the panel info from the service menu. Ex: http://i.pbase.com/o4/04/606404/1/60924652.2007Vers.jpg I am thinking about getting one again, now that the banding/text blur is fixed, but I am only interested in the LG IPS screen and not the PVA one. Just wondering which type is being predominantly delivered. Dell dudes, this is the most frustrating thing in the world. Why can't I be assured of what I am getting in the box?

Mine was a replacement. 2007FP LPL S-IPS May 2006 Mexico A02 It had some slight scratching on the back tho where the cables attach... make what will you will out of that. Works perfectly tho.

Thanks for the update. I saw another one in another forum that was new and had the Samsung Panel. I guess I few more data points wouldn't hurt, but it doesn't look good. Anyone have a June Screen?

I just received my replacement yesterday in BC, Canada and it's a 2007FP - Mexico June 06 -  LG IPS panel (my original was a Samsung) with zero dead or stuck pixels.  The A02 revision seems to have corrected the banding issue in desktop mode and I'm very impressed with the monitor overall.
