Dell UP2715K vs Hp Z27q, 5K monitor comparison

Most content creators, personal computers and consumers have not caught up with 4k yet but we have more than one 5k dispalys availabe alerady.
The first one to be intorcued was Dell UltrasSharp UP2715k which was announced in September 2014, followed by Apple's 5k imac (not exactly a monitor but an all in one) and now today at CES 2015 Hp z27q was announced.
Lets see how the dell compares with Hp

Surprised........? Me too!

The specs are identical with the exception of connectivity options. So does UltraSharp logo justifies paying double the price. Probably not. If I had dell 5K , I would probably be packing it now for return. (or at least be calling for price match !).
