After reading some reviews and checking prices, I decided upon the iiyama. I ordered it on a monday and recieved it on a friday. It has a crisp clear display that doesn't flicker at all. You definitely have a lot of real estate to mess around with when using this monitor. I strongly recommend this monitor for anyone looking to upgrade to a large monitor.
Warranty is the same here in U.S. as well.
This monitor is fairly new and is a great monitor. Look around on the web there are some great deals on it. If you look at your monitor from the side it is hard to see and looks distorted. Looking at this monitor from the side you get nearly as sharp a view as if viewing from the front. Depth and size is neatly packed in this unit.
