At 28" the benefits of 4K would be negligible, unless you press your nose against it.

I respectufully disagree. As a TV yes but people sit much closer to monitors than TVs.

4K at 28 inches is 1/2 the PPI of iPad Retna display. As long as you sit 3-4 feet away form it you will see plenty of difference between that and 1080p.

that's only if you care about that sort of thing. the average consumer will just see the price tag and laugh!!!!! 

its all about perspective. the average designer or photoshop editor will jizz his pants once he sees this thing at that price as long as its ips. the average hardcore gamer will do the same. afterall he just spent a 1000 dollars on a gpu(s)...why would he do this when all he really needed to do for 1080p is spend 150 and lower his AA slightly.
