I've been compiling information about the various monitors available that
are compatable with the Commodore Amiga.  I've gotten information about
the entire product line from Amdek, Sony, Taxan, Nec, and Princeton Graphics
Systems.  The only monitor that I don't have info on is the 1080 from
Commodore.  Could someone tell me a bit about this monitor?  I need:

	Screen Size
	Dot Pitch
	Resolution H and V
	Input Types	(Dig RGB, Analog RGB, Composite)
	Bandwidth
	Horizontal Sync range
	Suggested Retail Price
	
This is the information I'm including for each monitor.  Is there anything
else you would like to know?  One thing I don't know about is the availability
of matching cables for the monitors I'm listing.

A preview:

The best monitors seem to be from SONY.  All of theirs take both Digital and
Analog RGB input.  They are all based on their famous Trinitron line.  They
all have microblack masking.  Some also have the finest dot pitch (.25mm) of
*any* monitor I've researched.  Sony also makes a projection monitor with
900 H lines or resolution that can project a 200" diagonal image!!! All of
their sets have flat (vertically) tubes so that light from above is reflected
down from the screen.  I always did like Sony.  Nice stuff.
