I've done a bit of eBay liquidation of some old junk, and I now have enough cash to grab a 17" LCD monitor. One which has caught my attention is the BenQ FP17E. This panel has a 12ms response time, 500:1 contrast ratio, 300 cd/m2 brightness, 1280x1024 resolution, DVI and VGA inputs, and as a bonus has a fairly attractive design.

I've been able to find these in Sydney for a touch under AU $400. So...the question is, has anyone had any experience with this model, or do they own one? If so, what do you think? Any other suggestions for 17" LCD screens priced somewhere between AU $400 to $500? Thanks in advance.
