I'm having a hard time finding a monitor that suits my needs. I do play FPS a lot but I really like black levels so I'm not sure if TN or PVA is best for me. The other problem is that I'm absolutely certain that I want a glossy screen monitor (otherwise I would stay with my LG 204WT). I would prefer the monitor to have height adjustment and rotation because I turn my monitor often for web, graphics, reading comics, playing vertical arcade games. Lastly, I have a Shuttle system that is basically on the brink of being able to play all the current games very well with AA and most features maxed at 1680x1050 so I think I have to restrict whatever monitor I buy to that resolution and so I am assuming 22" is probably the maximum I should go for?

Any ideas which LCD I should be looking for? The stores all seem to be full of 24"s and there doesn't seem to be much selection with rotation AND glossy screens at the 22" size.
