I like my 23" it feels like anything bigger would be too much screen to keep up with sitting at a desk.

I disagree. 27in is the sweet spot.
I got a 27 in Samsung LED for $299

get the smallest 1080p monitor you can get. That's probably between 21-23 inches.
High pixel density is good, and a smaller viewing area allows faster reaction.
eta: I'm eyeing this one LINK

The model that bluebarracuda posted is the one that I have, albeit bought it new from New Egg.
The 23" ASUS VH236H is legit

Damn that is a nice deal.
Fricking Apple spoiled me with IPS panels. Every monitor I purchase now has to be an IPS display. Everything else just looks ugly, it is a damn curse I tell you!

right now I'm dual monitor with a 17" 720p and a 19" 1440x900. Once I get to Houston I'm going to go to microcenter and get a 21.5 1080p and dump the 17".
