I've been using a couple of these as racks monitors on a production 
recently.

The first two developed a strange fault that manifested as yellow 
patches in saturated red areas, and they've been warranty replaced. 
They're the best flat panel monitors that I've worked with so far, very 
stable and with a good viewing angle, but still not as good as CRT 
monitors. LCD monitors can't even maintain a white balance across the 
width of the display, and really are only video headphones

I'm anticipating looking at the Sony OLED units in early 2012, although 
as Park has said the Sony Trimasters (the LVM-270 IIRC) are OK in an 
edit suite, but no good for grading purposes
