No service after warrantee expires - Don't Buy Dell
Purchased this monitor from Amazon it died 3 months after the warrantee expired. Dell says they only replace monitors that are under warrantee and have no repair service for monitors out of warrantee. So, stuck out of luck with an expensive piece of garbage.

If you are seriously considering dropping 1300 on a monitor you are either a professional or an idiot with money. I fall solidly in the latter category but I have yet to regret my purchase.

Most Amazing Thing
I am Animator and VFX compositor. This monitor supports great with sRGB which is usually true film color. I compared its color with other monitors and to the film. This is more accurate than others.

Excellent Monitor that is showing its age
The Dell U3011 has been out for over a year now, other companies are releasing LED backlight monitors but most of them are not 10 bit color. Many say that 10 bit color is not needed and most people don't have the hardware to support it anyway.
Pros:
- High connectivity, Dual HDMI, Dual DVI, VGA, DP and composite connectors
- Has Active and passive USB extension from PC and xD/SD/MS and MMC right on the side of the monitor
- Fine dot pitch, IPS panel
- Factory calibrated and supports Adobe RGB and 10bit color.
Cons:
- Expensive! CCFL and not LED backlight
- If switching between inputs sometimes the U3011 will not see signal and requires poweroff/on sequence to wake it back up
- No rotate to verticle support
- The monitor requires a warm up period before maximum color accuracy is achieved (about 5 minutes).

Great monitor you'll really like if you can handle the price.
This is a spectacular monitor that will delight your eyes every day you use it. It's sometimes hard justifying the price of a 30 inch monitor with 27 inchers being so much cheaper but that extra screen area is nice when you're working on it everyday.

Dell Ultrasharp U3011 review
Dell's U3011 is still the ultimate desktop display, but perfection doesn't come cheap

Got one directly from Dell at a special price (1800 NZD) which is one of the best deals I have ever had :) I know if I would not get one, I will regret, and as expected this 30" IPS monitor just works great!

I could go into glowing prose about the Dell monitor, but I opted for a short anecdotal review. You can read all about the specs and the features elsewhere. The real question is how does it compare to other monitors in real world use? The Dell u3011 is my third 30" monitor and the best of the bunch.
Pros:
- Big and bright
- lots of inputs and lots of tweaking control
Cons:
- Image scaler could be better
- Not an issue if you only run native resolution

Dell 30 Inch
Gaming on this at 2560 x 1600 is superb. Playing EVE Online, I see little details I never see on monitors running 1920 x 1080.
