Apple Cinema Updates Delayed?

They'll make a bigger splash with the introduction of the 2nd generation G5s.

my guess is they will be here for mac world in january...along with new xserves some speed bumps/price drops and a brand new apple product, and a few software updates :)

I can feel displays coming before the expo in January... dunno why, but I feel it... hoe I'm right...

I was hoping for at least cheaper.

hopefully they are lighter than the current ones. Can't put them on partical board desks b/c the displays bend them due to extreme weight :).

that stinks-I've been using the same cinema display for the past 3 years, and while I'm not complaining about its quality by any means, I was hoping for an upgrade soon.

I'd like to point out.... as rumors go.... LCD revisions are pretty far down the list in terms of "reliable" rumors.

People expect LCD revisions because they don't match the PowerMac G5s.

But there have been very few reliable rumors that LCDs are actually being revised.

i expected that by now at least the 17" would have been replaced with a widescreen model...

Or I would at least expect a round of price cuts on the current models to keep them competitive. High demand and stagnant supply has kept flat panel prices from falling much lately, but the competition has found ways to get their prices down.

The 20" Cinema Display was a world beater when it first hit the market - the competition used to cost hundreds more than Apple's $1,299 list price. Now there are quite a few good choices (Samsung, Planar, etc) for 20" LCDs that run at 1600x1200 for $800-$1,100. They're not widescreen, but give you more pixels overall.

$699 for a 17" LCD running at 1280x1024 is bordering on lunacy these days. If only they were $499 or even $599 (though you can get refurbs for that price).

OTOH, the Cinema HD Display at $1,999 still blows away its competition. Sony and Viewsonic still don't even come close.

I'm in the market for a new Cinema Display. 24" or 23" maybe a little brighter and more contrast the the actual displays.

Anyway I'm waiting for the new revision and I would like it to have G5 design. yeah baby yeah.:D
