PC monitors for photo work

It's time to think about a new monitor for the PC here. I'm currently running a 37" Sharp Aquos main and I-O DATA 19" secondary. The 37 is great for size, but lacks resolution. I thought I'd pretty much decided on a Samsung 2443WB (24 inch, 1920x1200) but then I read about colour gamuts. This monitor is said to have 82-85% gamut, and not very good for photo stuff. I'm now thinking of either the Dell U2410 or HP LP2475, both 24 inch, 1920x1200 with 110% gamut, supposedly billions of colours versus 16.7 million of the Samsung.
I can't justify an EIZO or a HP Dreamcolor, so something like the two above will have to do.
What do you guys recommend as far as a good 24 inch (or thereabouts) monitor for photo work?

Cheers,
Jason.
