samsung 226BW Vs 226CW

[nebs]

ok i have done a little bit of research on the differance between the 266BW and the SM-226BW and the SM-226CW from what i can see from the spec is:

266BW - special features

• DVI(HDCP)
• MagicBright3
• Black High Glossy

266CW - special features

• DVI(HDCP)
• MagicBright3
• Wide Color Gamut(97%)
• Color Innovatioon
• ImageViewer

so are Wide Color Gamut(97%), Color Innovatioon and ImageViewer actualy worth the extra money??

also the main reason why i am thinking about getting the CW is that i read somewhere that the CW version is only shipped with one panel type (the samsung one) is this true? if it is i may get the CW to avoid the hassle.

Good question. I see at PCW they ahave the 226CW.

Does anyone have any more knowledge about the differences?

This lottery with the samsung screen types really does suck. What they should do is clearly label the different models by different panel types. Then charge more for an "S" type and less for a "C" type.

I really don't think it is worth the extra money tbh.
