This would be a good market for manufacturers like Amazon Basics or Monoprice. Make no-frills screens/TVs with good panels and good input selection. Monoprice has already moved into monitors[1].

- mcmatterson 13y agoAgreed. In many respects, what I really want is a 40"+ monitor. An effective power save mode could obviate the need for HDMI-CEC, and I'm sure I could solve the outboard OTA tuner problem easily enough.
- pedrocr 13y agoRight. These days a lot of people have a cable box or a fancy receiver feeding their TV and then end up with a mess of remotes to manage this. Connecting a monitor to the cable box or receiver and having a single remote would actually be much cleaner. As you say, if the cable box shuts down the HDMI port when off the monitor should turn itself on and off nicely.
