Vega,
I'm not looking into a 55" monitor, but there are a few 34" gaming monitors (Acer and Asus) coming onto the market in the next few months that I'm definitely interested in.
Is the curve more than a gimmick for the 34"? Why did you decide to go 55"? Was it just a question of mo' bigger, mo' better?
Anyway, that 55" looks amazing! congrats!
