From what I remember of this discussion on CI$, the big advantages of the
sony were the multisynch and the fact that it has a glare-coating. The
disadvantages were less-accurate color rendition (adjustable if you
are or know a hardware freak, but not for the Rest of Us, or those of
us bothered by ~25,000v), and slightly reduced resolution, possibly
due to the glare screen.
I would have gone for the Sony, if it weren't for the developer discount.
