I currently have a 1905FP from around six years ago as my only and main monitor (first lcd too). It has served me well in games and everything I have asked it to do. But being in college all the computers have 24 inch dells, some even have two! Going back to my 19 inch just makes everything cramped when working now. Looking up my 1905FP I now see that it is not as amazing as I once had thought with a 20ms response time among other things.

So now I am looking to upgrade to possibly a U3011. With that I have a few questions:
Is the dell site still the best place to order from?
How often does dell put the monitors on sale?
Should I wait for a sale?
Or should I really just save my money and get something else?

Dell has it on sale for ~$1034 after X$0SQC0B7J0JBN as a coupon. Should include tax and S&H. Great time to pick one up. This is as cheap as I've seen them go.

Sadly I don't think this works on the 30inch.

vvvvvv It would seem that the home section one comes with a $100 coupon that can't be removed. Thanks! vvvvvvv

I got my U3011 in today (sale for $1000 tipped my hand) and holy poo poo is it one, huge; two, amazing. Having so much screen real-estate is like living in a mansion for my desktop.
