    They just updated the 30in with better specs(higher contrast ration and brightness). Doubt we'll see a full on replacement.

    I know they recently upped the specs but I kinda inferred that from my first post but nevertheless I am still wanting a NEXT revision as I am wanting to buy but everyday I keep thinking the new one is going to be coming out so...

    Since they did do the bump fairly recently, I doubt you'll see the 30in getting another update soon. I would suspect that the next good release window for Apple will be around WWDC when they look to be bringing out the new Intel Powermacs. The pairing would make sense.

    My thoughts exactly!!



    What better way to introduce the new work horse (Mac Tower Pro) of the Apple line with a newly redisigned 20inch, 23inch and 30inch Cinema Displays!



    Perhaps even a larger screen???



    and Ireland who knows you may be right if the MacBook comes with iSight why not the Cinema Displays?

    I wonder what percentage of the 30 Inch Apple Display users run OS X...



    Most people I know run Windows whilst using the 30 inch...



    An inbuilt ISight camera will be just another driver that folk will have to install...



    I don't think there will be an ISight camera on cause most people that buy these buy a few of them and tile them up or side by side...

    Why do you need to make INFERences from your own post?





    Oh, I see, you don't understand the difference between 'infer' and 'imply'.



    You're not unusual :-(

    Actually the two may be considered synonymous

    I don't think we'll see an update to the 30in yet. It's already beyond the resolution that most people need. I think we see more changes in the 20" and 23" I'd love for Apple to create a 27" Cinema Display at 1900x1200 possibly even replacing the 23" model.

    How about a sweet 42" 1920x1080 (24p capable) LCD display, with VESA mount & built-in iSight with remote control pan & zoom capabilities?



    Perfect for the living room?!



    Now if Apple would just do a DVR box for the Mac mini?



    ;^p

    I'd like to see a 150DPI 20inch display... 30in resolutions in a 20inch size. My current 20inch display is only 99DPI, which is looking more and more inadequate.



    Of course, we'd have to wait for resolution independent 10.5 before we can properly use a high resolution display. Back to waiting...

    You'll see a 30" update because the current 30" still lacks HDCP.



    I won't buy a larger monitor without HDCP which at this point means Dell...I just ordered 2 30" and 2 24" from them.



    Apple I didn't even bother considering. I'll replace my desktop in a couple years but I'm not as likely to be able to replace the 30". The 24" I figure to be commodity items like 19" is today.

    I'd like to see a resolution indepence feature in the next version of

    OS X. If you set the font size to 24 point it would exactly the same size

    of 24 point text on paper. It's kind of irritating when you see a website's text scale depending if the screen has a 72dpi resolution or

    100dpi.

    Tomorrow...that's when they're coming out...



    Haven't people figured out that nobody knows anything as far as when Apple is releasing stuff?

    Wrong; back to predicting school for you.

    does anyone think they'll refresh their display line at NAB next week? seems like an appropriate play to do so. of course it would also make sense for them to do so when they release the powermac successors so they match, but the current display are lacking compared to even the intel imac display (from what I hear)

    HDCP will probably become obsolete soon.



    I bought a Dell as well, by the way. But for me, the reason was the 3 year warranty.

    Better than not having it which we know the studios don't like. What is replacing HDCP? I know that folks are working on HDMI with better connectors.

    Universal is now also not going to use the image constraint token, so there are only 2 studios left. It's still up on the air what will happen, and I don't think it will help you future proof your purchase much (if at all), unfortunately.

    I was thinking about this a bit. What if apple put speakers under the display. In the same way they do in the iMac, that would be a nice touch. And a welcome addition to the WWDC new displays. Here's my 2 cents. Same design, same color. Buitl in i-sight and hidden speakers, like the iMac.
