Samsung entered the 30-inch LCD monitor derby a while ago, but now at the huge CeBIT show in Germany it’s rolled out a big bertha computer monitor with LED backlighting, all the rage for color freaks. The SyncMaster XL30 packs scary specs if you’re inclined to believe such things, quoting a 3000:1 contrast ratio and a 2ms response time. Heck, that’s so quick, why don’t they just call it zero?

Beyond all that guff, the 30-inch behemoth does double duty as an HDTV—with its HDCP capability, it’ll pass through all the DRM-infested content you care to watch. Samsung’s not talking prices yet, but its conventionally-backlit 30-incher goes for around $1600. Looking at this picture of the flat panel, we’re wondering if it’s a 4:3 display, and hoping not. We’ll pass along more info when we get it.
