I asked the company who runs the price info site to check their assignments, 
and they fixed the categories: http://geizhals.eu/?cat=monlcd19wide now has a 
"inkl. 3D-emitter" attribute. This currently only returns the Asus 278HR which 
can only be bought in Poland, or through EBay.

The cheapest current Nvidia Quadro with (optional?) 3-pin DIN Stereo connector 
(needed for Linux) is the K4200 
(http://www.nvidia.de/object/quadro-desktop-gpu-specs-de.html) which starts at 
~ €700.

best,

Kay
