Not a happy camper....my 2209WA that I got back in May crapped out on me while playing Arma II. The screen just stopped displaying and now won't even do the power on test.
I got it from the techbargains website:
"
Dell Small Business has the E-IPS Dell UltraSharp 2209WA 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor for a low $249.00 Free Shipping with 3 year Advanced Exchange after Coupon Code: 2FQLFSCXNDN7FW (Exp 3/13). Tax in Most.
"
Still wondering if this is a good deal.
I received my 2209wa from one of the recent(2 in the past 2 weeks) $209 sales in Canada, and it's a Rev A01 Panel made in China in January 2010.
It seems like a very good sample, whites are white, blacks are black, the back lighting seems very even and absolutely no dead or stuck pixels.
When I unboxed it the first thing I noticed was the heftiness of the stand, and once I got the panel mounted on it I was very pleased with the adjustability and how solid the stand feels.
For $209 Canadian I am very very happy with this purchase, I just wish it was 1920x1200!
If I had more money I might have ordered 2 more for $209 a piece on the 8th of March days of deals sale... and a DVI/DP active adapter for some eyefinity.

That's WoW at 3360x1050 everything maxed with my 22" and 20" LCDs, not that nice to look at from the outside, but do the screenshots ever look cool.
But for now I'm content with just gaming on one screen, and I love having a 2nd monitor again* so I'll just keep an eye out for another 2209wa in the near future as the Acer X203w I'm using as a secondary will be going back to my cousin who was letting me use it when he was out of the country.
I might just have to buy a cheap 15-17" LCD off of craigslist/kijiji when I return his as I'm already attached to having two monitors again, being able to watch my videos and have IRC open on one monitor and all my work/play on the Dell is very nice. It's nice being able to catch up on my backlog of video and being able to "work" at the same time.
*I had two CRTs up until the end of Summer '09, still in use on my old systems.
Sounds good.....My original 2209wa (actually a 2209waf, made by foxconn; A01 made in April). Worked great until the matrix decided to give way. Dell sent a replacement refurbished monitor, also A01, made in August. Doesn't seem to be any problems with the replacement. Curious question, will the warranty continue on the original three years, or for one year typical with a refurbished monitor from dell?
I've got a Dell S2209 myself that I am satisfied with. For a comparison of the Dell LCD to other computer monitors, go to http://www.topfivecomputers.com
You're kidding right? That's got to be one of the lamest websites and comparisons I've seen. Congrats, you got a hit from me. It doesn't even talk about the 2209wa. You've got a 17" TN panel as the top pick! Get out of the basement boneyard.
They are all 2209waf. That is dells internal model number. You will have the remainder of the 3 year warranty on the replacement.
Do you guys think this monitor is better than LG w2220p (for gaming and watching movies)? Considering Dell 2209WA is 450$ here and w2220p 300$.
I haven't gotten any replies in my other thread, so I will ask here, which is probably more appropriate.
I just wanted to know if anyone else feels the text and colors aren't outstanding? I know alot of you are praising the text and colors, but I use an older 2001FP IPS panel at work and its alot better for text and colors. I'm migrating from a CRT here at home. I've tried some of the settings in this thread, and they did help, but I'm not getting a "wow" factor at all. For $212 I shouldn't be complaining, but I guess my expectations were set pretty high.
Mine is rev A01 made in china.
Here is a link I found in the hard forums with a number of pictures

I am not sure what panel it uses and I am unfamiliar with that model. But if it uses an IPS panel and it's 150 bucks cheaper I would purchase the w2220p.
I wouldn't do that. Importing items can be a pain. And then there's customs.Thanks for help, I'm trying to find out is Dell 2209WA better, because I like Dell's design more, but also.. wouldn't want to pay more just because it has better looking stand
Also, is it possible to order Dell 2209WA from U.S. or Canada for 200-300$ to Europe (Croatia)?
