CES 2009: More than just a few months away


We've spoken with several monitor manufacturers and despite announcement of 120Hz 22-inch monitors planned for late January, you won't see anything much bigger than this anytime soon.

LG should come out with a 23.5-inch display with 1,920x1,200 resolution at 120Hz, but we've been told not to expect any larger monitors anytime soon.

The 22-inch model from Viewsonic which goes under the name of Fuhzion will start selling soon for $340, which is quite a lot for rather small display, especially if you know that in Germany you can buy normal 22-inch display for as little as €99 ($136).

Nvidia doesn’t think that these displays are expensive, but at the same time company sources have commented that every technology is expensive at launch and that the prices will eventually come down.

The 23.5-inch LG might launch in Q1 2009, while the bigger models will probably show up some time in the second half of the year.
