is there a big difference in quality between these two? Contrast, brightness, viewing angles, which is better for watching movies etc etc, i cant decide whether to invest +245 for bigger screen (can anyone make photos?)

I got the Matte one, I like matte much better, light doesnt reflect as much. And I figured I'd get better gaming performance under native resolution... easier for the GPU.

Wise choice I think. You'd definitely get better frame rates than you would at 1900x1200. Though I would have liked to have the glossy version whihc doesn't seem to be offered anymore since the lighting in my office is to the side and not behind.

How is the brightness and contrast on the matte?
