This looks very similar to a 19" monitor that a local Staples had on offer a few months ago - when I checked the spec it had a cr*ppy 25ms response time, so not really suitable for dvd playback or games. :(

Amazing deal, even if only 25ms it`d do for my parents.. but i couldn`t find one in stock in 4 stores within 30miles of me...

It has a 16ms rate but that is all irrelevant as they have left it on the website but you cannot order - I set an e-mail alert but as soon as I recieved the e-mail they were still out of stock. This looks like a scam to make people think they are selling great bargains when there is no such thing!! >:(

Agreed.

Went to the store and put in the catalogue number and I got a message saying that it was only available for home delivery.

Went on the website and put the number in and guess what? "Not available for home delivery".

Stalemate.... :(
