Philips Launches the 252B9 Monitor - 25", 16:10, 1920 x 1200, IPS
Philips is launching the all-new Philips 252B9 B-Line LCD monitor with PowerSensor. This 25" (63.4 cm), 16:10, WUXGA (1920 x 1200) 3-sided frameless monitor brings together high-performance features to enhance productivity, sustainable design to lower energy costs.
The Philips 252B9 is a champion of sustainability. Its unique PowerSensor can detect human presence using harmless infrared signals, in order to automatically reduce screen brightness when the user is absent. The result is a reduction up to 80% in energy consumption as well as extended monitor life. In addition, the Philips 252B9 is equipped with a zero-watt hard switch, which entirely cuts off the monitor from AC power, putting an immediate end to latent energy consumption when the monitor is not in use. Compliant with such energy standards as EnergyStar 7.0, EPEAT, WEEE, and RoHS, the monitor features 85% post-consumer recycled plastic and 100% recyclable packaging material to further reduce its carbon footprint.
Users of the Philips 252B9 are given the advantage of numerous innovative features to improve productivity and ensure optimal comfort. The SmartErgoBase enables users to lift, lower, tilt, rotate, and swivel the screen to the precise height and angle that best suit their needs, easing the physical strain of long work hours. An integrated VESA pattern offers the added flexibility of mounting the monitor using hundreds of compatible solutions.
The Philips 252B9 also offers multiple comfort-enhancing technologies for visualization such as Flicker-Free, LowBlue mode for greater wellbeing, and EasyRead mode for an enjoyable paper-like reading experience. Two built-in speakers as well as multiple connectors for VGA, DVI-D, DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 1.4 complete this powerful, forward-thinking monitor.

There are some old 3DVision 1200P/1050P 16:10 monitors floating around, but they're expensive as balls
Progress... but still using inferior tech for 99% of all products, sadly, each with its notable drawbacks (IPS/VA/TN).
I really don't want to go from 8:5 to 16:9. 16:9 is too squatty--meant for films on 60"+ screens, not computer operation.8:5 is not "exotic." It is VESA standard established with DVI.
Virtually all 8:5 monitors sold today are targeting business offices--higher productivity.
a) AU Optonics IPS 10 bit panel.
b) 144 Hz or bettah
c) Motion Blur Option
What do you guys think?
