Can anyone recommend a TFT Monitor under £150?

After much researching and hunting around I finally decided on the computer monitor I was going to buy to replace my old 15" tft, which has been working on and off for the past month of two.

In the end I decided to buy the Hewlett Packard W19 monitor for £144.99 from Comet, but I went in today to find out it had gone up to £200!! So i've checked online and Currys also sell it but they have none available :( John Lewis also stock it but it's £189 from them.

Anyway, can anyone recomend a similar specification TFT for under £150? I'd rather buy a 19" but could cope with a 17" if the moneys right!

Hewlett Packard
    19" screen 8 m/sec responce time 300 cd/m2 brightness 500:1 contrast ratio 1440x900 maximum resolution 0.285 mm dot pitch 16.2m Colours

Any help is much appricated, thank you!

    I can recommend 19" Samsung TFT's, I have a Syncmaster 913n and I'm very pleased with it. I think it's now been replaced by something newer but it's far better quality that the Acer I first bought (and returned).

    Thanks, had a quick read up on that one and it sounds perfect but the cheapest I've found up to now is £205 :eek: I'm going to hunt around and try to find it cheaper if I can :)

    I have a Xerox 192 Wide screen from E-buyer and I see Aria are selling them for £131.something.
    I can recommend both shops for their service and prices but there's an awful lot to chose from!
    Happy New Year!!

    12ms response time is not very good compared to some of the others.
