Eh, the Asus is basically the same (or similar, anyway) as a Dell 2412. I wouldn't get that excited over it, or feel bad about not getting it.
If you want 1200p, NEC has a 24" IPS that just came...

I take amazon/newegg reviews somewhat with a grain of salt when it comes to monitors. The key reason is simply that for the majority of people, so long as the monitor is bright and works, it's good...

FYI, price dropped again to $199 at Amazon. Newegg also has it for $199 with code MTYLUSP39 (3/25 only) but it's sold out.
If you want this at $199, I'd recommend jumping on it, because Amazon may...

None 27 and larger for $200 or even close. And the one 26 that is $200 is an off brand with no HDMI
It's nice but it's a TN panel.

It should look slightly better with a direct digital DVI connection but that's great to hear. The MVA panels are supposed to have better black levels but viewing abnle is closer to a TN panel.

A decent price would be the same as the 2750, which I think is around $240-$260.
But on release, it may be closer to $350. I am not sure if it's been confirmed for a N. American release either.

Not everyone has room on their desk for a 32 inch TV. And if what you say is true about resolution, 32 inch 1080 would look worse than 27 inch 1080.

It always has better real contrast than IPS. There isn't a single IPS panel that comes close.
