If you don't want IPS level AG coatings, your choices are a bit more limited. You could go with the dell ST2220T or the eizo FS2332. Both would "solve" the AG issue. You'd sacrifice in other areas though.
what issues are there? My lg's been de Ag'd for over a month without an issue.
If you've read most of the AG removal threads, some of them end up doing something to it afterwards that ends up ruining it. It takes more effort to clean it without causing issues, for example.

Hmm, well what about the newer LG IPS monitors? Like this one?
http://www.amazon.com/LG-IPS236V-1080p-Widescreen-Monitor/dp/B004SUDU9Q/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
The Asus PA238Q? Or how about cheaper monitors like the ViewSonic VX2336 or the AOC I2353PH 23? I'm not sure if the last two aren't as great because they are cheaper, and I'm not sure if any of those are glossy screens, but I was just throwing out other monitors out there to be compared to the U23/U24.
All the ones I have listed have been consistently rated good and have had relatively low (low for an IPS) response times/input lag for gaming.
The PA238Q is a good model but similar to the u2311h and u2312hm (more so the former). The LG models lack overdrive, meaning they have much more noticeable ghosting, making them worse for gaming. I don't know if this also happens on the viewsonic and AOC models. The only one out of those that has been reported as having lesser AG is the AOC, and even then, we just don't know enough to say whether or not that is true.
If you want a glossy IPS in the size range, it'd be the dell ST2220T. If you want a matte "IPS" with no heavy AG coating, that'd be the eizo FS2332.

It tends to be difficult to notice in darker games with a lot of texture to everything. It's only really noticeable on brighter games where everything isn't overly detailed. That's what I've observed.
