  • Have ordered one of these from aria today the price was £137.36 delivered by citylink including VAT which seems excellent for a 17" TFT. Have already had 3 emails from them 1,confirming order 2, order processed then 3, order despatched.
    Highly professional so far just hope they are as good as you guys say.
    Thanks to the O.P.

    Mine arrived on New Years Eve it is excellent, the picture is bright, the colours are great. and it is so so small compared to my old 19" CRT monitor.

    I also ordered one from Aria and arrived on 31/12. Excellent service from Aria and delighted with the monitor though I'm no tech expert. Just waiting for the system from Dell now.
    Thanks to the posters & Happy New Year

    Is DVI really that good? I cant decide where or not to get this or pay more and get DVI?

    Also is the higher the contrast ratio the better?? 500:1? this that good?

    Final thing does any one have any DABS.com codes

    Thx

    Which were you thinking of buying? 500:1 is better. The higher the number the better. I was going to go for the specials section 17 inch one at aria but noticed for an extra 30 quid I could get a 12ms one with 500:1 contrast ration and 3-year on site warrenty. Tempted by that! :)
    Being bored is so boring Im bored of it... :rotfl:
  • Bleugh

    Just dismantled my LCD screen,....................
    its EXACTLY THE SAME PANEL as used in the ViewSonic VP171b, currently at around £280 RRP
    ...............
    BUY THIS MONITOR!!

    That is amazing information....thanks.

    The viewsonic is available at Amazon for £360 http://spod.cx/s?820


    ....which makes the Aria version fantastic value at £131 ;D

    I am still very happy with mine ;D ;D
  • aria.co.uk are not out of stock on these! The price seems to have been reduced to 117 also.

    The next price up is 129 which is good value also. I think I'll be getting another TFT screen for the missus, but don't tell her!

    Treat everyday as your last one on earth! and one day you will be right.
