Default Something I think gets glossed over about the Kuro Elite 101/141 Monitors

I really think the fact that the Kuro Elite monitors accept PAL, SECAM AND NTSC signals gets glossed over in many forums. I mention only the Kuro Elite monitors because I own one--it is extremely hard to find signal info on the 500m/600m models, while the 101/141s world-wide signal support is listed on Pioneer USAs spec page. Now, I don't know if this feature is common to all monitors, or simply to those a given manufacturer allows, but I really love it and gladly paid $500 more for my 101 monitor as opposed to the 111 TV. Why do I love it? Because if I buy a European Blu-ray, I can watch not just the HD film, but also the SD PAL extras (Hidden (Caché) is a great example of a region-free BD with PAL extras). When I add to that a region-free Blu-ray player, I can also play any PAL DVD upscaled, and also region-locked Blu-rays. For example, Gomorrah is locked to Region B and has SD PAL extras, but I can watch everything on it, including the extras, because my Blu-ray player will play them and my monitor will display them. Yet I never see the Kuro monitors world-wide video sinal support being touted anywhere. Is it that most don't realize it, or is it that most, even custom installers, don't care?
