Missed this one last week – ASUS launched what they’re calling the “world’s slimmest 22 inch widescreen LCD monitor” in the form of the LS221H. So.. the real question is – how thin is this monitor? How about 45 mm thin! Yeah I thought that was pretty amazing too! Other nice features include diamond cut corners, glass edges that combine seamlessly with the piano-painted glossy black chassis, and the use of leather on the lower half panel of the monitor. There’s a 9H hardness glass panel for scratch protection which provides 96% transmission rate and a reflective rate of less than 2%.

Specs for the ASUS LS221H include the following:

• 22″ widescreen LCD panelOptimal resolution: 1680×1050 WSXGA+
