Engadget reports about Gateway's new 21-inch FPD2185W widescreen LCD display.

This huge display features a 1680 x 1050 widescreen resolution and a $599 price tag.

One of the major advantages of this LCD display is that it's the first LCD display with support for the High Definition Copy Protocol (HDCP). Likely you have never heard about this but this protocol will be a requirement to play protected high-definition video on your Windows Vista PC.

The FPD2184W also has a integrated Faroudja chip for enhanced video processing, integrated 4-port USB hub, a 1000:1 contrast ratio, 178 degree viewing angle and a 8ms pixel response time.
