Its big brother the VA 1916w is a 19-inch widescreen with the same native resolution, and features a 2000:1 dynamic contrast ratio for the clearest and brightest pictures possible. For those into gaming, you will appreciate the 5ms response time. You won't be able to pick one up until August, but the $229 price might be worth the wait.
