I know this isn't possible right now, but the res is within the limits of DVI-D. So why haven't we seen it fruit up anywhere? Is 1600x900 that new? It would be nice for those who have 16:9 monitor to get something heigher than 720p or 768p.

As monitors increasingly head toward 16:9 aspect, I wouldn't be surprised to see it become a possibility. You're right that 3 x 1600 x 900 should be possible cablewise if it can already handle 3 x 1680 x 1050.

It's going to get harder and harder to buy 16:10 monitors in the future, which has me wondering whether or not to invest heavily in the TH2G and risk it or looking at ATI's Eyefinity.

I already use a TH2G and am pretty happy with it, but am building another 4 machines so I'm keen to get it right.

I have a Triplehead2go as well, I love mine, but as eyefinity gets better I can see the triplehead getting out moded. Though I do think that Matrox should update there triplehead to be able to push it to the brink. It should be able to do custom resolutions (although they would need to be evenly split) so that we can get the best experience possible.
