Hello, I want to buy a monitor with built-in speakers and a USB hub, I found the ASUS PG221 to be the only one to match my needs and its reviews are positive.

However, the monitor is from 2007 so I am wondering if it is 'out-of-date' or if Asus is releasing a new edition soon? (Although I can find no info about that). Maybe it's so perfect that it doesn't need to be revised :)

I'm looking for opinions on whether it's outdated, if I should look for something else, or if buying a four year old model is plain stupid :)

You can see specifications on the monitor here: http://www.google.com/products/catalog?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB😱fficial&channel=s&hl=en&q=ASUS+PG221&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=1155680333025281589&ei=0Fm7S-DxIJyJOPvG5acI&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CA8Q8wIwAw&os=tech-specs

Thanks for any advice!
