[Gllug] High resolution flat screens

I'm looking for a flat screen, like the subject says. Essentially, this
is for a display screen that we can stick on the wall and show status
from our monitoring systems, etc. I was somewhat stunned to find that
all the large screens have crappy resolutions. Does anyone know of any
that don't?

The best I've found so far is the Samsung SM241MP TFT screen, which
will go up to 1920x1200. But it's only 24". The SM403T, in the same
range is 40", but only goes up to 1280x768. WTF?

For plasma screens, it's even worse. The 42" PPM4253 is 852x480, and
the 50" PPM50H3 and the 63" PPM63H3 are both only 1366x768. Is there
some reason that these screens a so low res compared to a decent CRT,
or even to a modern laptop? It's not just Samsung, BTW, it's other
makes as well.

So does anyone know of a high res, reasonably large flat screen?
