Why would you need a plug adapter. The power supply looks to support that same 3 prong plug used on most monitors and power supplies among other things. If you are like me (and probably 90% of this forum) I would imagine you have dozens of those cables laying around.

I ran across the CATLEAP Q270 on ebay, couldn't believe my eyes. Google searched "CATLEAP Q270" and this thread showed up. If it's legit I have to get one! Just joined the forum just for this monitors! This thread has gotten me excited!
Previously I had a Dell U3011, it was a beauty but the AG coating gave me severe eyestrain, cost $250 to return it frown.gif Glossy screens give me eyestrain as well, but for the price I'll risk it, espeacially if we can get a group buy price:) My eyes are fine with the dell u2311h's AG though.

I'm home, and it's here in one piece, and powers on. I need to take care of some family things before I get to my comp (I'm on a phone), but let's just say I'm far from disappointed. Very far.

Well tell us what you think, post some pics and stuff!
Also, you have the catleap or the Achieva?

Edit: Also, how many days did it take to get to you? about 7 days?
