Planar PX1710M Review

- If you just read the specs, Planar's PX1710M looks like a great deal for $369. It's one of a handful of monitors under $400 that include pivot adjustment, and it throws the $40 Pivot Pro software into the bargain. Many aspects of its design work nicely. But its image quality doesn't match that of similarly priced--and even less expensive--17-inch models.
