I wouldn't let the HDMI input option sway you unless this is a top feature you want or need. It is a nice features but HDMI is backwards compatible with DVI. Buy the monitor you like the best if it doesn't have HDMI, you can always get adapter or a cable.
I would go to the shop, take in some well known media such as your favorite DVD and tell the guy you want to compare the two, he should have no trouble if he want to sell you a monitor that day. Things to keep in mind is many times Shops will set the monitors or TV for that matter bright to catch your eye.
This is done all the time to help sell the displays, People look at it and say "Wow, look how bright it is, I want that one!" meanwhile they didn't even notice the monitor is too bright and the colors are all washed out...
this is extremely common with LCD TV's...
