Another two questions should be asked Dell-ChrisM ....
1. Are all further sales on this monitor the A 03 version or mixed A02, and A03, and how long will it take to implement a complete change over, so we won't have to send it back for a replacement ?
2. Can all A02 version, not matter how long we had them, can be exchanged for the A03. 21 day return policy question
I just received a 2407WFP A03 in the mail yesterday. I set it up last night and had some issues in the setup process ,but everything seems to be up and working now. I didn't spend much time with it (didn't unpack it till 11pm last night), but I do not notice any banding issues so far. I have only seen desktop mode and haven't had a chance to use a game yet.
I'll post when I have a chance to spend some more time with it on any issues etc...
If there is something you specifically want me to look at on the A03, let me know and I can try to accomodate that.
Well I'm sure everyone is in the same boat as I....waiting for a quick response from Chris/Dell....esp because the $400 online discount offer ends today!!!! I've had a massive headache researching this monitor and to be honest the unfortunate negative press so far is making it look like Dell is simply discounting to move bad product....
My primary use for this monitor would be for the MAC thru DVI and component input for Xbox 360. Both uses have had so much bad feedback......
This is the 20" thread http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=dim_monitor&message.id=62942&view=by_date_ascending&page=1
But, however, no absolute proof (pics) about it.
Another one to add to the list - the video tearing that occurs when a Xbox 360 is connected to the 2407 via the VGA cable. You have to turn the screen off and then on again to remove the tearing.
Yeah sorry, my bad. I entered through the Australian site and assumed I was in an Australian forum.
Think I'm going to bit the bullet and buy and cross my fingers. I'll do thorough testing and post any issues I have up and hope I don't have to use the 2 week satisfaction/return policy. I really want this monitor to work out.....
Could you also find out if the 2407WFP Revision A03 will be available in Australia anytime soon? I have been told by my Dell Customer Service Rep that the A03 is not available in the ANZ region.

I feel if dell fixed this monitor it would probly sell like no other lcd in history :P
I dont understand why Dell is procrastinating so much when they could be blowing their opposition out of the water.
I really want and like this lcd but all this drama is doing my head in.
News would be fantastic, prefferably good news too :P
Thanks

I have only seen evidence (pictures) of an A03 2407 on the forum. No one has come forward with an A03 2007.

You mean a $ 390.00 sale on the 2007 FPW don't you ? http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productlisting.aspx?c=us&cat=snp&category_id=6198&cs=19&l=en&mnf=694&Page=productlisting.aspx
No $400 sale on the 2407 model, which is what we are all talking about here.
A week ago the same 2007 FPW went for $367.00 on sale. They will be back ( Sale that is )
