I've got a Dell U2711 which also has the same panel as the Apple Cinema displays and yet was only about 2/3 of the cost...

3 years warranty (though i've heard they replace your broken display with returned ones which might or might not be faulty) , color calibrated and no-dead-pixel-guarantee...

Edit: Ah, seems the display mentioned by parent has LED backlighting compared to CCFL in mine - of course i'd prefer the LED too ;)

I wouldn't be so sure on the LED/CCFL issue.

LED backlighting is still a consistency nightmare, with bleed and clouding being the norm.
