Samsung today announces three new LCD displays as part of its 70 Series family, the P2070, P3270, and P2370HD. The first two rock a 30mm (1.18-inch) slim form factor, while the HD model checks in a little thicker at 65.5mm (2.58 inches.).
"The 70 Series offers our customers a sophisticated-looking LCD monitor with the performance capability of our televisions," said J.H. Kim, President of Samsung Electronics America's Information Technology Division. "The 70 Series is the new standard as more people upgrade their monitors for additional uses, like watching television programs and playing video games."
Power users will be most interested in the P2370HD, which boasts full 1080p HD (1920x1080) and comes with a built-in HDTV tuner, integrated speakers with SRS TruSurround, and a remote control. Other specs include a 5ms GTG response time, 50,000:1 contrast ration, and HDMI and component inputs.
No word yet on pricing or availability.

Hi there maximumpc.. It's been awhile already this model has been up in the market in my country. Here's a hint on the price..
For the P2370, the price is around RM869 or USD241 approximately. I must say this thing is brilliant. It's very slim and looks cool. There's light emitting and the whole transparent thing is blue lighted.

...way more than what Samsung will ask. Their current 24" monitor that's like this (TOC T240 I think) is $320 on Newegg. They have a 23" TV Monitor for around the same price MSRP. Both do 1080p. A 40" TV that does 1080p easily costs over $1000.
