Dell is one of those company's lots of people love or hate. They put out lots of high tech devices at good prices that make your average consumer happy. Then when stuff goes wrong with their gear they have some of the worst support on the planet.

When you couple that animosity, with some fudging of financial numbers not too long ago; you have a recipe for lack of trust in Dell products. Dell isn’t known to be that much of an innovator when it comes to their products, but recently they have been changing that notion with the introduction of the XPS M1330 and XPS M1730 notebooks.

Dell is also getting ready to announce a new 20-inch LCD display that has a webcam built-in. The display is called the SP2008EFP and it has a native resolution of 1680 x 1050, a 2ms response time, 300cd/m2 brightness and a 2000:1 contrast ratio.

Connectivity options include DVI with HDCP for protected HD content and a VGA D-sub. Too bad Dell doesn’t equip their displays with dual DVI ports for those running multiple computers. The display also has four USB ports with two of them on the side and two on the rear.

No speakers are built-in, but an optional sound bar is available for those wanting speakers on the display. The built-in webcam is a VGA fixed focus design with an array microphone. The release date is set for September 12 and no pricing information is available at this time.
