Dell 2005FPW - Deal DEAD

You can read a quick article about the pixels at About.com You can read more about the backlight bleeding on Google.com Ok, on the evening of the 26th, UPs had updated the note on thier tracking results. It says that it was on time. Sure enough on the next day(yesterday), it said that it was...

Dell 2005FPW - Deal DEAD

Ok, UPS just updated their website. The origin of the package is from NV. That's seems a bit odd. But UPS has rescheduled the delivery for May 31st. So much for that hope. :( There are people in this thread that have A02s and still have problems. There are some that have A01s that don't have...

Dell 2005FPW - Deal DEAD

Ok, the next morning, I talked with Dell again to verify the Ingram Micro Address. This time, they gave me a different address. This one is to Tillium in Loiusville, KY. I asked them about Trillium and they stated that it was a Dell facility. After that, the tech gave me the same reference...

Dell 2005FPW - Deal DEAD

I agree, the percentage is pretty high. I think that they just keep shipping out the returned monitors to new customers. A lot of people out there won't even notice the problem or they will think that it is normal. I was concerned about the return address, so I contacted the Order Support via...

Dell 2005FPW - Deal DEAD

Well, I ordered my 2005FPW on May 18th. I received it 6 days later on the 24th. It's A01 manufactured in March 2005. No dead pixels but really bad backlight bleeding. On the 24th, spent about 30 min with a Dell representative and their supervisor via online chat. They stated that I must go...

Dell 2005FPW - Deal DEAD

Yeah, CA stinks. We have some of the highest car isurance, land and/or a home is outrageous, and gas is out of this world. Then, they made the "environmental fee." If the politicians actually spend the money on the environment, then I would be all for it. After that, Dell put a kiosk in one of...

Sears Black Friday Deals

Oh no, not the Koss DVD player again!!!! Last year, I went to two Sear's trying to get this DVD player. They were sold out in the first hour. :( They happily gave a rain check to me. However, they didn't fulfill the rain check until the end of January. Kind of late if you ask me. Other than...

Canon ESO Digital Rebel 6.3MP DSLR - $599.99 + Deals

It's probably Grey Market. In other countries, products are sold for much less than here. There are a few reasons for this. One, you get only the camera and not ANYTHING else. No battery, no cables, and no warranty. Second, refurbishment. at lot of these products are just returns that appear to...

Radeon 9800 pro $200.75 shipped

I have seen this before. People type in the company two or more different ways which results in two+ different reseller rating values. Baboon Guy's link has only 12 reviewers in it. I, personally, wouldn't base a purchasing decision on what only 12 people had to say. Also, while 5.63 is low...

Smart Tags on Anandtech?

Yeah, after posting I did more searching and it does appear to be just dhtml or javascript. I guess it fits Anandtech's design well. :) Yeah, I have been thinking about trying Mozilla just to see how compatible sites are with it.

Smart Tags on Anandtech?

In the past few days while browsing some websites, I have seen words that appear to be links. When I hover over them, a box pops up and tells me to buy things at MSN. Example, I was looking at the Dell 2001FP review when I noticed the word monitor underlined and a different color. When I...
