The oddly-named Buffalo is set to release the FTD-W924ADSR/SV (yeah, sorry), a 19-inch widescreen LCD with a 16:10 aspect ratio. Yes, 16:10, or 1,440×900-pixel resolution. Other stats include a contrast ratio of 800:1 and a 5ms response time. One of the big questions is whether or not the display supports HDCP, but seeing as though Sony buckled and won’t cripple their Blu-ray titles on non-HDCP monitors, it’s not quite as big a deal as it could have been.

Look for Buffalo’s monitor by mid-month in Japan for an “open price.” How thoughtful of Buffalo.
