Are they all? Someone posted in another forum that he thought his panel was a Samsung S-PVA panel.

Having not yet seen one in person, I have no way to know...

did he post evidence like this or was it just his/her thought?

This is amazing news! With this monitor being H-IPS (with one of the newest LG H-IPS panels) and being LED backlit, this monitor is a steal.

I totally agree, no wonder people are flocking to the stores...

Thanks! This has sealed the deal, off the the apple store tomorrow morning!

One last question, does it have a built in fan?

Yes, it does it have a built-in fan (I think), but it's a high quality and low RPM fan that you cannot hear even in a quiet environment...you will only notice that there is a fan when you place you hand under the Apple symbol and you feel a little burst of air.

Big education discount on this in Australia. $250 off from the $1500. That's like 17% off.

Makes it a far more realistic buy for me already

It is $100, or about 12%.

Great. I don't do any color sensitive work which would require a high-end panel but at least I won't feel so ripped off.

Now if they would only show up for sale. I don't like ordering something and then having to wait 2-4 weeks to get it.

I think I'm going to wait it another 1-2 more weeks when the apple store has plenty, so that if I do get a defective display (dead/stuck pixels and such) I can just take it right back for a quick swap, instead of trying to score another one.

Argh, I want one so badly. But good deal or not, $800 (edu discount) is $800. Months of groceries! Hundreds of gallons of gasoline! Many shares of underpriced stocks!

But I think its a fair trade for years of led backlit H-IPS eye candy goodness. You can always earn more money but there is only one 24" LED ACD out there for you!

Now I am even more pleased that we ordered one of these. Now if they would just ship the darn thing.....

November 28, 2008. They said it would be up to 10 business days when I ordered it (and it hasn't been that long yet). I'm just excited to get it.

So, how are you liking it so far?

Where exactly is that sticker on the display?

I believe he took his 24" led cinema display apart and that sticker is in the back panel inside the display.
