24" LCD Monitor

[ceekay84]

I'm looking for the best deal on TN lcd monitors. For some reason, I'm just not liking the colors of the Dell 2408wfp (returned it due to eye strain - overly bright) and the Dell 2209wa (the one I'm using now). The colors seem a bit dull and not lively and the old Dell e248 monitor that I had seemed to have more colorful icons and lively fonts that do not seem jagged or redtinted. Brightness and contrast levels is a nightmare to calibrate along with the custom RGB setting which vary from user to user. I know the differences between a TN and Non-TN panels. But I am about to return the 2209wa for a TN Panel so I need some good places to get one of the following monitors:

Samsung 2493HM
Samsung T240 HD
Samsung T240

Anyone know of any good deals for these monitors?

Not exact match but Newegg has the Samsung 2343BWX for 179.99 after MIR. Use promo code EMCLWNW26 .

Its native res is 2048 x 1152 which is the same or larger than you'll get on a 24" (1920x1200 is the native res for the monitors you listed)

How does the Samsung 2343 compare to the ones I listed? I know TNs suck but I want the best out there if that makes any sense.

If you were interested in the T240HD, Newegg has it for $294.99 w/free shipping after promo code EMCLXLW37.
