A few days back, I told you about a leaked image of what appeared to be Dell’s new 27-in computer monitor, the W2707C. Well, I had the main part of the story right, just not the model number.

I can now confirm that the Dell 27-inch 2707WFP widescreen monitor is a reality, running at a solid 1900×1200 native resolution. The monitor is housed in a slick aluminum case with a beveled glass base, so it has a little more panache than most other DELL monitors. The display also claims a 1000 to 1 contrast ratio and a wide 92% color gamut. Inputs include DVI with HDCP, component, composite and s-video. There’s also an integrated media card reader and USB ports. The display offers full tilt, swivel and height adjustments as well.

The monitor is priced at $1399, and is already available from Dell’s online store.

27-Inch Dell Display Info Leaked

A few months back, there were rumors on the street that Dell was going to release a 27-inch widescreen LCD monitor. Now it appears that these rumors may be true. An image was leaked on the Dell website showing the inputs for the heretofore unseen flat panel.

A Dell employee confirmed to website DailyTech that the image was from the training manual for their upcoming W2707C display. Further speculation is that the monitor is positioned to cross over Dell’s television and their computer monitor lines by including both computer inputs such as DVI and USB as well as television inputs such as component and composite, but not HDMI. The panel is assumed to use Samsung’s new 27-inch 1920×1200 glass, which would be sufficient for 1080p+ resolution.

Dell has generally received high marks for their 24-inch (2407WFP) and 30-inch (3007WFP) widescreen monitors, so I’m looking forward to checking this one out when it hits the street.
