Even cheaper if you go through Redflagdeals.com $2000 Canadian.
Re poll. No. Anything bigger than a 23-24" would end up in my living room. I don't think this monitor is suitable as a TV. I could be wrong. |

What would make it? It has HDMI and 14ms response time. Dell seems conservative with their response times too.

I haven't read much into the new 30" Dell display. Does it require a special video card?

Not really special, just having a specific feature. A dual-link (I don't know the real marketing term) DVI output. Cards like this include the Radeon 9650, which is probably the cheapest card you could use.
To drive two of them you'd need a dual-dual-link. I don't know which models support that.
It's probably similar to Apple's 30" displays, as all of Dell's models are like that.
