simple answer. Your dealer wants you to spend $8000. Is the CineTal a great monitor. You bet your ass it is. Do you want to spend $8000 - ABSOLUTELY NOT. You can use that extra $3000 - $4000 for other illicit purposes.

Look at the JVC DTV24L3DY, or DU - and the Panasonic BT-LH2550. I just saw the BT-LH25500 yesterday, side by side with the "old"
BT-LH2600, and I was shocked at the problem it had with "off axis" viewing, but if you look at it straight on, it's very nice. But the JVC is better for under $4000. Is the CineTal that your dealer is pushing better ? Yes. It is. Would I spend $8000 for a TV monitor - absolutely not.

Also look at the crappy Panasonic TH42PH11UK for $849. It's really fantastic if you are willing to deal with a plasma.

In my opinion, (and what the hell do I know), the Cinetal is much better than the eCinema or TV Logic, but I dont' care how good it is - I will not spend $8000 for a TV monitor (unless it "cant say it on Creative Cow"). And even then - it's not worth the extra $4000 unless it does it every day for the next 3 years.
